Thank you for that.
I think built into this idea of “carrying capacity” is the idea that the impact on the environment is relative to the number of boats. I represent a huge rural riding with many lakes. On most of those lakes, you could be in your boat for hours and hours, if not days, and never see another boat. On the idea of national standards, I wonder if it could somehow accommodate the fact that Canada is very diverse and that there are huge regions of our country where there's never going to be the density of recreational boating traffic to necessitate regulations like the ones that are being contemplated.
How would you establish national standards that accommodate those different contexts in our country?
