I want to thank all the presenters for their presentations today.

Ms. Farrell, I want to thank you for your presentation. My riding is on the east coast of Nova Scotia, and many of my constituents currently work in the Alberta oil industry.

I found intriguing in your presentation your comments on the appropriate geological conditions for carbon storage. I'm wondering, could east coast coal mines--and the east coast coal mines that have been closed--be appropriate geological sites for the storage of CO₂?
