Environment committee  I think the vast majority of the economic opportunity as it relates to marine protected areas in the north is related to ongoing monitoring and research. There are the typical guardian-type jobs, park warden jobs that would come with this, which, of course, should be filled by In

Environment committee  Yes.

Environment committee  Ask me in a year. I don't mean to be cheeky about it, but in fairness to those agencies, prior to the last year there hadn't been much direction to move this stuff forward. There now appears to be direction to move this stuff forward. It has been just a year. Things need to mov

Environment committee  I think it's probably best to describe our relationship somewhat with Ducks and a few charitable trusts. Those organizations are the ones that provide funding for us to do the conservation work that we do with the Inuit in the Arctic and the Canadian north. Ducks' interest is wat

To go to the Canadian boreal initiative, the Canadian Boreal Initiative was about protecting trees. You might wonder what that has

Environment committee  We have identified areas that we would like to work in and we identify issues that we would like to work on. We approach Inuit organizations, such as in the case of Pond Inlet, for example, which sits more or less in the proposed Lancaster Sound national marine conservation area.

Environment committee  Yes, that is correct. Those were by DFO and other federal agencies. I don't have it with me, unfortunately, but a map exists as part of the land claims negotiation process.

Environment committee  We have proposed areas, so to speak. They're not hard and fast areas, but we've said to the federal government and various agencies and politicians over the course of the past couple of years that if they were serious about this 10%, if they took the EBSAs and took the Inuit stuf

Environment committee  We have gone through a very poor exercise on that, so I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with advancing numbers from a budgetary perspective. We have gone through it, but—

Environment committee  I do.

Environment committee  Yes.

Environment committee  Yes.

Environment committee  Yes, sure. As I said in my remarks, I think this really needs to be driven by Inuit. It needs to be managed by Inuit. I wasn't aware that you had been to Haida Gwaii. Recently I was there as well, with some people from northern Labrador, from Nunatsiavut. For those who don't kn

Environment committee  It started off as the Haida saying that they were going to protect this area. Captain Gold, on his own, essentially—

Environment committee  —started this. It was the same thing we had our discussion earlier about how one value was placed over and above everything else. In Haida, it was the logging industry. In the north, it has been mining and oil and gas development.
