I certainly thank Mr. Cullen for raising this.
To build on Mr. Hardie's comments, one of my concerns is that if we start outlining what the purpose is.... I think this is part of a larger piece to try to improve spill response and prevention, but if we say the purpose of this legislation is to achieve that, there are a number of other measures not included in this bill, specifically around cleanup, which I think would not be properly reflected if we actually said the purpose of this is to improve—I forget the precise language you've used—oil spill prevention and response.
To me, if we said that this is the purpose, we might communicate to Canadians that this legislation doesn't actually achieve its intended purpose, because to achieve what you've stated the purpose maybe should be isn't actually accomplished, in my mind, by what this legislation is, notwithstanding that I still support the legislation.
