Environment committee Exactly. You're reinvesting that capital. You're reinvesting in order to increase your conservation footprint on the ground. You still have some land in purchase or in ownership at any one time, but it's not the same piece of land. You're moving that around while you go about doi

Environment committee It's going to depend on the project itself. In some cases—I'm going to use an example from the Prairies—if you're taking land that's already in grassland and you're simply going in and restoring the wetlands in that quarter section and holding it for maybe two or three years, you

Environment committee There actually was a proposal put forward by the Canadian Wetland Inventory for a Canadian wetland inventory that laid out an entire approach on how to do this. It varies by region. In some locations of the country you don't need to get into that very fine detail, whereas when yo
