I have three quick points, Mr. Chairman. They all relate to the issue of indoor air quality, which has been brought up by several people who have spoken.
First, it's clear that indoor air pollution is at least as big a problem as outdoor air pollution. The levels can be higher, the population health impacts can be equally great, and we do spend the bulk of our time indoors.
Second, how do we go about addressing indoor air as a risk management issue? It's quite different from outdoor air. We can't set Canada-wide standards for indoor air, because there are local micro-environments that would have to be handled each uniquely, and who would be responsible?
But there are two approaches, both of which have been mentioned. One is to focus on products that would release contaminants into indoor air. Gas stoves for cooking that release a series of gaseous pollutants would be another example, beyond..... What's the name of the compound that creases your pants really nicely?
