Thank you.
I'm sorry to be rude here, but I recognize that I have a primary area, which is environment, and I need to get to that. I'm glad to hear there is some of that happening. I can tell that in metro Vancouver there are lots of conflicts and there is disgruntlement that the port seems to trump the community's environmental or other priorities. I think we can do better.
With respect to the environment, I do get that a seamless supply chain in ports, a reliable supply chain, can lower environmental impacts.
Ms. Nugent, I heard you really focus in on climate and reduction, and that is of critical importance, but from my perspective it's important to think of the conservation issues around ports and the vessels that ports are the key hub for.
Are there thoughts you have around what could be the port's role not just in greening its own operations but in being a driver of more environmentally responsible shipping? Management of noise that can affect the marine ecosystems, as well as pollution and the dumping issues on the coast of British Columbia, are a real concern to people.
