I would like to thank the Member for his advice. When the Minister of Environment advocated banning materials that contain PCBs at a level of 50 part per million into any landfill sites, we raised a concern that there is really no scientific evidence that supported this, since there is no scientific evidence that there is any leaking of PCBs into the environment when you put these equipment and buildings intact into a landfill site.

We could write a letter to the Minister of Environment reminding him, in some diplomatic way, that for political reasons or whatever reason that he had taken a very strong position banning such an option. We could do that, but we also need to be aware that we work in partnership with aboriginal organizations. I am not aware of the nature of the response they will give to the Department of Defence at this time because they may see it as a question. Do we want to leave the DEW Line sites intact the way they are or do we want to provide some viable option for the Department of National Defence to dispose of them in an environmentally safe manner? If we have not drafted a letter, it is because we have not really had time to focus on it to craft out an approach to this issue. Hopefully, we are thinking the Minister will make the right decision and that may resolve things in a monetary basis. Thank you.
