Environment committee If you think of sustainable development, you usually think of three legs of a stool. You look at things from an economic perspective, a social one and an environmental one. We were expecting the Department of Finance, when it was reviewing potential fossil fuel subsidies, to be l

Environment committee In five seconds, I'll tell you that it would involve implementing the recommendations at the end of our report.

Julie Gelfand
Environment committee I'll take 10 seconds more to tell you that Fisheries and Oceans Canada needs certain information. However, at present, it has no information on the number of species that pose a threat to us, the pathways of entry and the locations of these species in Canada. The department needs

Environment committee In our audit, we didn't actually look at the transport between provinces. We were looking at it between borders, so the U.S.-Canada border. We did find generally that both CBSA and fisheries officers were not being provided with enough training and materials to know what to look

Julie Gelfand
Environment committee Well, I just heard that they've completed some of it, so that's great. I was aware of some of the announcements by Minister McKenna, for example, on the consultation, but I haven't received any specific information.

Environment committee You guys can; that's your job.
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Julie Gelfand
Environment committee That's a very broad question.
June 10th, 2019Committee meeting
Julie Gelfand
Environment committee What I would say—and I've said this in the chapter zero that I write—is that, for example, today we're spending one hour on four reports.
