Thank you, Mr. Chair.

A few years ago I was at the Chateau Laurier listening to your former former CEO, Claude Mongeau, advocating for fewer regulations. Now, if I'm hearing correctly, we want more regulations. We want Bill C-49 passed in order for us to invest.

What is the uncertainty in Bill C-49 and why do you believe it may not pass? Why are you waiting until it does pass to make those investments?
