It's not just the national or provincial border. The reality is that any movement between two bodies of water can be problematic. One of the problems with our current approach, especially in my region, is that a washing and decontamination station could become mandatory for all lakes. With 3,000 lakes in the Eastern Townships and $50,000 per washing station, the cost would be $135 million for a region of less than a million residents. In a context where the cost of living is increasing, the taxes needed to fund that would be considerable.
The focus should not be on borders, but rather on where a large number of boats move, especially around contaminated sites.
So this is not really about borders. The important thing is to deploy our resources intelligently and efficiently.
