That's a very good question.
I admit we haven't yet begun consultations with our members on regulatory issues affecting their ability to introduce coastal resilience solutions. That's an issue that comes up increasingly frequently.
We also noticed that one of our members, the City of Varennes, had to do some urgent work because the provincial Ministry of the Environment was too slow in taking action. That forced the city to start the work without getting the necessary approvals, which put it at risk.
We want to continue our discussions on the subject with our members next year. We also want to get a clearer understanding of how we can establish a new regulatory framework to facilitate matters for the municipalities and citizens in taking measures to protect their shorelines. The environmental assessment takes a lot of time and is a costly process. We could see if there are any ways to expedite the process, especially when it comes to improving infrastructure naturally.
