Thank you, Mr. Chair.
As much as I've tried to get witnesses away from always asking for money, it seems money makes the world go round.
I'm going to start with a question to Mr. Howard about general economic growth. If energy companies have money, apparently they can do more innovative energy developments.
Does the Canadian Energy Research Institute have any estimates of what Canada could forego in economic growth, tax revenue, etc., if some of the pipelines that are currently in the news are just blocked off and they don't go? Canada West Foundation did a bit of a report the other day. I was wondering if you have any data or information or have approached that subject.
