Mr. Speaker, before our colleague from Winnipeg North's speech, there was a more informative speech from our colleague from the province of Quebec, whose riding is actually on the St. Lawrence. We are talking about the erosion of the St. Lawrence River due to shipping. I am reading from the recommendations from the committee report, which call on the Government of Canada to do this, that and the other thing.
My question for the member for Winnipeg North is this: What role does the International Joint Commission have with respect to maintenance of the St. Lawrence River? It is not just a Canadian issue; it is also an American issue.
