Thank you very much. I was talking about the importance of oil sands development. So the work of this committee obviously being important....
Turning to our witnesses, I'd like to start, Dr. Gibbins, with you.
In a 2007 policy paper titled “Getting It Right: A Canadian Energy Strategy for a Carbon-Constrained Future”, you recognized that “climate change is a global challenge that requires a proactive and creative public policy response by all Canadians”. Your paper focuses on the supply side of the energy question and has suggested that “getting It right” means “seeking policy options that are principled, regionally balanced, economically viable, and effective over time”.
Specifically, and with respect to the oil sands development, what does “getting It right” mean to this sector?
