Mr. Chair, I'll make a couple of comments.
The member is quite right. I believe he indicated that the memo in question dated from January. It is true that we've done some analysis in this area. It was done before the pan-Canadian framework was negotiated and, therefore, didn't incorporate some of the features of the framework, such as the exemption for on-farm fuel use, which is part of the emissions pricing system in British Columbia and in the federal legislation. So there have been changes and developments since then.
First of all, one of the bigger conclusions of the analysis was that even at a $50-a-tonne carbon price, the impacts in percentage terms on producers were relatively muted. My recollection is that they're in the neighbourhood of 1% or 2%. The differences across provinces and regions that were observed in that analysis, I think, stem from differences in the electrical generating mix across provinces. I hope that helps to clarify things.
