The problem that I see in the current act is that it dictates a one-size-fits-all time frame for agency-led assessments and regional review panels, etc. I think it's far better for the parties themselves, in conjunction with the relevant authorities and jurisdictions, to work out their own case-specific or project-specific timelines. That has been done and done successfully. I just think that sticking to generic one-size-fits-all timelines is not the way to go about it. We need to have some more flexibility in the timelines.
I should also add that there is a myth out there that the environmental groups that I represent, for example, are really interested in bogging down the process—running out the clock and just bogging things down. I can tell you, that's not our interest. We don't have the time or resources or energy to do that. We want to see fast, timely, efficient processes as well. We want to get to the decision as quickly as we can.
I hope that nobody around this table thinks that we're in it just to slow things down. We want efficiency as well, but not at the expense of robust decision-making.
