I think it's relatively straightforward. The data is not available for a number of reasons. Most of it is collected by industry. Some of it is collected by the Government of Alberta, and the Government of Alberta clearly doesn't have the capacity to manipulate that data and make it publicly available.
There's a real lack of transparency on things such as reclamation. Industry talks about the first reclamation, of Gateway Hill, last year. There have been repeated requests for information about the status of that reclamation process, and nothing is provided. I think it comes down to a real lack of resources from both the provincial and federal government to actually ensure that data is collected and made available to the public, the people who need the data.
The problem with RAMP, of course, is that there's data being collected there, but as you heard, you have to be a member of RAMP to get access to that data.
The federal government should be leading these processes. They shouldn't be warming a single chair as part of a multi-stakeholder committee; they should be leading these processes and making sure the data is available to Canadians.
I think the lack of information is a black eye for Canada. It certainly contributes to some of the concerns about oil sands development. If data were available, I think that would go some way to allay concerns, but there are real issues beyond.
