Thank you, Chair.
I congratulate my colleague Mr. Godfrey on this innovative vehicle for advancing the goal of sustainable development. I had the pleasure of speaking in favour of the bill, but here we have an opportunity to understand the bill even more.
I'd like to ask either Mr. Godfrey or Mr. Park what other countries have instituted such legislation. What has the experience been? What are the challenges? For example, I imagine it's one thing to have indicators and regulated targets on a vast array of environmental issues, but what happens if these are not met? And would these targets only be applicable to the federal bureaucracy, or do they go beyond that? Would they apply to legislation like CEPA, for example? If you could enlighten us, I'd appreciate it.
