On that last comment on government willingness and resources, we've just gone through this act and fundamentally reassessed some of the priorities that we believe government should be enacting--the equivalency agreements, the hot zone designation within Canada, retrofit programs, hard caps on emitters.
My goodness, if we believe this is a good thing, and government is saying they believe it's a good thing, then clearly in the opposition ranks we can also see it as a good thing, and not for the want of some potentially less than 400 chemicals and the assessment of looking for substitutions that would be better and that industry could actually apply and not make the pollution in the first place. It just seems incredible that the argument is being posed.
I again encourage committee members to seek some courage on this, to know that substitution is one of the highest orders of pollution prevention we have available to us and that we haven't been doing it to this point. Let's get on with it.
