Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to all of the witnesses for this great discussion today.
I want to follow up with Ms. Tull about watersheds. You talked about, of course, the importance of healthy watersheds and natural sponges, and the experience in the 2021 B.C. floods where they obviously helped with the flood mitigation.
Where I'm from, in Ontario, we have conservation authorities that are responsible for watershed management. That was established in the seventies, after floods that happened before my birth, but obviously that was part of the infrastructure. I know there are other organizations involved in this space in terms of watersheds and the wetlands. I was part of one prior to my involvement in politics.
What would you say is the best role for the federal government to insert itself in—because there are other organizations, other levels of government, provincially driven stuff—to be complementary and not duplicative?
