Mr. Speaker, I do not know if someone can pick up on the proposal I made a while ago. We all have our caucus meetings tomorrow, and if a letter was already drafted, it could be faxed or e-mailed to the various U.S. legislatures. You could, I am sure, Mr. Speaker, accommodate us with the addresses of the various state legislatures along the border.
It would seem to me that this would at least be an extremely positive and concrete action instead of just waiting, as you say. We cannot wait, in fact.
I have heard one of the interpretations of the issue. My colleague asked a question on this. What are the grounds for saying that if it is stopped, it is because the Sheyenne river level is higher and so the diversion cannot take place? Is that the reason, or is the pressure from Canada? We do not know. I do think, however, that this is no reason to halt the pressure. In fact, it is a reason to continue it. I can see now that this pressure can be done through members of legislatures. It is a pity we did not have the opportunity to speak together earlier on this in order to see how we could combine our efforts.
