Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague, the hard-working member for Dauphin—Swan River—Marquette, for all the great work he is doing in the recreation fisheries conservation partnership program. It is tremendous work, and a lot of our conservation organizations are taking advantage of that program.
My colleague across the way just talked about division 16. However, the Act would allow the incorporation of other acts, such as the Environmental Assessment Act and the Fisheries Act and others. It would also allow for the recognition of the role that the provinces have a role to play in the environmental area. As well, with the efforts that have recently been undertaken by this government over the past number of years, it would make sure that we have only one person for the regulations. We do not need four or five people doing the same thing, which is what we tended to have previously. There was an overlap in all this legislation.
Given the member's experience, I wonder if he could comment on the effectiveness of having only one regulator to oversee things.
