As we proceed with the implementation of our Water Strategy, as we proceed with the work with the federal government about monitoring, and as we proceed with the discussions about taking over more authorities for land and water and resource development, those are the types of efforts we’re going to have to make. That we’re going to have to, as well, rely, and the Member talked about traditional knowledge, the people that are the users of the land and the water and the fish, and ENR will have a clear role to play, because have people on the ground in almost every community that can work with communities and the users, the fishers, the hunters and the trappers, and we can be that connection point to make sure that we work closely with the federal government and the Fisheries folks and Environment Canada as we both do the monitoring and try to backtrack, to make sure we want to know that the water is in as pure a state as possible and if it isn’t, how do we fix it. Those are going to be our challenges going forward. Thank you.
