Madam Chair, the minister can add more to that if she would like, going forward.
We have heard many people speak to the importance of the green economy, when it comes to fighting climate change and growing our economy in a more sustainable way. The same opportunity is available with what the minister just mentioned, which is the blue economy. We know that if we do not make significant changes and take on ocean pollution, illegal and unregulated fishing and plastics, our future opportunity to grow our economy and to leverage Canada's tremendous natural assets will be, frankly, diminished.
Could the minister provide some insight into how she sees Canada's opportunity and role with regard to blue economy going forward?
