Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I apologize to the witnesses that I didn't get to hear their testimony, as I was engaged in another meeting and wasn't able to attend.
Mr. Woodworth has opened the door for me on this Asian carp thing, and I want to explore it because it came up today in terms of.... There was a meeting held in Chicago in February on Asian carp. Basically they're saying that the electronic barrier that has been put in place is not adequate, and that it's likely to be inefficient in protecting the Great Lakes from the Asian carp.
The City of Chicago had suggested that they completely block all passage between the Mississippi River and the Great Lakes in terms of commercial transport, but that's been rejected by the business community in the Chicago area.
They've identified the problem as being serious enough for the City of Chicago to suggest that. Is there any action on the part of the Canadian government to put pressure on the U.S. government to initiate actions that are going to be completely effective in stopping these Asian carp, which are an absolute disaster coming into the Great Lakes?

I'm interested in getting into the same topic as Mr. Scarpaleggia did on the contaminants, because we are dealing with water quality here. We've heard a lot about nutrient loading, a lot about the impact of agriculture, and maybe we'll get to that a little bit later.
When it comes to these new chemicals, some of them are bioaccumulators and some are just present in the water course. Is that correct?

Getting back to nutrient loading, because I think this is one of the more serious problems that everyone's trying to deal with, it just seems that we have a voluntary method of dealing with agriculture right now, in terms of encouraging.... Do you think that is ultimately going to be successful in dealing with the problem we have with nutrient loading in the Great Lakes, or should we be moving to a system where there's regulation, where there's polluter pay, and where there's an analysis of farm practices to determine those types of things?
I'll open it up to anyone.

Thanks, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses. I think you've painted a pretty difficult picture of the conditions in the Great Lakes and certain areas that are quite under stress.
Mr. Ciborowski, I'm interested in the chemicals in the water system. You talked about polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, environmental estrogens. What are the main causes of those things coming into the—
