My last question is to Mr. Elgie.
I will go back to the orientation of our work here at committee with the contribution of the witnesses. There are two orientations. One is the attempt to disprove the merits of this bill, and I can almost see the glee amongst my Conservative colleagues when hearing Mr. Hogg's initial presentation as to its constitutionality. The second is the orientation to improve the bill, the orientation to make this bill a functioning and viable thing.
In accordance with what Canada recently agreed to on the international stage, I think the point is well made. Canada has gone forward and given what's left of its good name in terms of environmental performance to the world community to say that we have agreed in principle to these targets.
This bill is seeking to make that real, to make that live. What confidence level do you have in the ability to incorporate some of the measures that you've considered, and some of the other witnesses, to make this a viable mechanism to achieve the aspirations that Canadians are looking to have and to fulfill our international agreement?
