Mr. Chair, with respect, I'm not suggesting that the government has a problem with this mechanism, but we don't know what the mechanism is. We don't have any definition or parameters to understand what it is. So we're asking to vote on something that doesn't have any parameters to define what it is. It talks about a mechanism, which, in my mind, means it's going to do something. I would like to know what the members of the other parties think it's going to do before we decide on whether or not it's even appropriate to decide. And I think we should stand it down, at the very least, to get on to what the green development mechanism is going to be about.
