Thank you, Chair.
My questions are addressed generally to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers.
Over a period of 30 to 40 years, since 1970 to the present, and having visited Fort McMurray, parts of Calgary, and also southern California, I've noticed that best practices for soil or land remediation have been used by many of these producers of petroleum products. Over that period, I've also noticed that they have made efforts to introduce species or at least provide safe remediated land for species.
Perhaps you can share with the committee how the efforts of your association in any of the petroleum-producing areas have brought back species like the northern shrike, the boreal owl, and perhaps the northern bison.
