They have been called upon by all of the premiers in this country every year for the past 10 years. The smart regulator has called for these changes. In fact, the Commissioner of Environmental Sustainability, who reports to this House, has called for precisely these changes. They would increase the authority of the <a data-HoCid=\"128634\" href=\"/politicians/jim-abbott/\" title=\"Jim Abbott\">Minister of the Environment </a> and of CEAA to streamline the process to make it more effective and more responsive to Canadians.</p>",
