Thank you.

Obviously, the United States doesn't have a carbon price across the country, but we know that many of the states have an equivalent to a carbon price. We also realize that a lot of the trade agreements are going to include some kind of carbon pricing in them.

You talk about competitiveness. Is the prospect of tariffs being applied if you do not have a carbon-pricing program in place not also a competitive concern for Canada?
