Chair, I'm going to be directing my questions primarily to Mr. Elgie and Mr. Olszynski.
Mr. Elgie, I'm going to ask you a number of questions, and then I'll have you comment on them.
Do you support the new early planning phase? Should there be meaningful public participation in this phase? Should participant funding be available in this phase?
In your experience, why is meaningful public participation important? Are you satisfied with the public participation provisions within the IAA ? If not, what are your recommendations for reform?
