Environment committee  The issue of water levels, of course, and water control is shared between Environment and Climate Change Canada and the province. Where Fisheries and Oceans Canada has an interest is when those water levels may have an impact on fish and fish habitat. That's the extent of the Fisheries and Oceans' responsibilities, and we work closely with our colleagues in the other departments.

Environment committee  Thank you. From a DFO perspective, while we don't manage nutrients coming into the water, we are actively working and doing some science to understand what that impact might be on fish and fish habitat.

Environment committee  Actually, Fisheries and Oceans Canada does not have the responsibility to assess the amount of toxin in fish. I'd refer that back to Environment and Climate Change Canada or the Food Inspection Agency.
