Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I've certainly been listening with great interest to the testimony of the witnesses here today.
I wanted to start off by letting you know I'm the chair of the Canada-Poland Parliamentary Friendship Group. I had an opportunity to visit Poland recently. Poland was brought up in earlier discussions, and it was lamented that Poland is still lagging. They're pursuing economic union development, but they're still reliant quite heavily on their carbon technology.
But I also found it quite interesting that Poland is actually the only country in the European Union, given its current state of technology, that has positive GDP growth and a falling unemployment rate. I'm wondering if there's any correlation between the two, and if either of you would like to comment on that. It's the only country that hasn't adopted a wide range of these environmental targets at this point in time.
