Thank you.
I've had the great pleasure of working with some of you since 2004. I began with the justice committee, and as of 2006 was with the environment committee.
I'm very optimistic about this committee being so rich in experience and qualifications. If we work together it will be amazing what can be accomplished.
In the last Parliament I went to Taiwan and was on a delegation with Ms. Duncan. We had a wonderful time experiencing Taiwan, but on the side, also talking about the environment. I mentioned to her that it would be wonderful to work together in the environment committee, and here we are.
I encourage each of you to meet with one another. Go out for coffee with each other. As we work together it could be quite amazing what we could accomplish.
Yes, there will be different positions from the different parties, but even In today's meeting we have listened to one another and adjusted what was being proposed. So we can continue to work together.
Ms. Rempel.
