Two things: the Member and I have discussed this and, as well, with the deputies, and as far as I understand, there is money there for a conference to be held in the Member’s constituency and the region. The detail has not ever been worked out in terms of having the workshop. It’s the one region that we have yet to have the workshop. We’ve talked about it for some time.
I agree with the Member about the concerns out of the Peel watershed. In fact, we’ve had correspondence with the Yukon Minister indicating that we think it’s time to look at that agreement that was signed many years ago through the Mackenzie River Basin Transboundary Agreement.
The $725,000 is geared very, very specifically to the negotiations of transboundary water agreements with Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, and the Northwest Territories. That has been identified as a priority issue. We have been working on that for a number of years, as well, and now we’re getting to the point where we’re very close to sitting down at the negotiating table and this will give us the funds to do that for the rest of this year.
