It seems to me that the drivers of the bill are greenhouse gas mitigation and rural development. Liquid fuels are not the only way to support farmers. We've worked on this for 17 years, longer than anyone in Canada, to see how to use farmland to mitigate greenhouse gases efficiently and support demand enhancement for the farm sector. We came up with a solution that's eight to ten times more effective than what Bill C-33 is focused on.
I would like you to look at these other options, and look at the budgets you have to spend on biofuels, and perhaps say that we should scale back the two and five to smaller numbers, develop biogas for power, and develop switchgrass pellets for commercial energy. Thermal energy is our biggest energy need in Canada, and it's the lowest-cost solution that we've found in that report.
