Thank you for having me at the committee, Mr. Chair.
I certainly want to give a shout-out to Mr. Lobb for putting this bill forward. It's a great day when Parliament comes together and votes together, especially for an NDP proposal. I'm here on behalf of Mr. MacGregor, and it's an honour to celebrate that victory today for all of us in Parliament.
I guess my question.... I apologize because some of this will be somewhat repetitive, but it will help with our theme of questioning. The committee has been hearing that the advancements in technology that would allow farmers to dry their grain without the use of propane or natural gas are likely about a decade away from being readily available and economically viable. Can you talk about your views on implementing a sunset clause for this exemption, such that after a 10-year period the statute would revert back to the language that currently exists?
Mr. Byrne, do you want to speak to that a little bit?
