I appreciate the answer from the Minister. It is clear he did his homework and I gave him a heads up, so I appreciate the detailed response. As part of our mandate, we agreed to "develop an integrated comprehensive approach to the management of contaminated sites including prioritizing, sharing of responsibility in collaboration with other governments, monitoring, and a sound financial security system to prevent public liabilities."
This item was not changed during the recent revisions. What lessons have we learned from the Mactung and Cantung messes and how will this government apply them to achieve the mandate commitment and prevent further public liabilities?
