Thank you for your question. It's an important question for which there's no easy answer.
I think it would be sensible to have a national energy policy. I often think the debate is focused on the environment, or on the economy, or on energy. I believe it's time we balanced those things. It's not just about one or another of those aspects; there are benefits that must flow back to aboriginal people, others to other communities, and others to the rest of Canada. They have to be integrated.
We need energy. I don't know what we would do without energy. We have to pay attention to what we do. If the idea is to raise the dialogue, I think it's sensible to establish facts on a more scientific basis and to promote greater understanding.
