I'm sorry about this setback.
So I was saying that, for the NDP, the environment is of course very important. We are fighting to ensure that our waterways—the Great Lakes, the St. Lawrence River—are protected. A component of some cosmetics and personal care products, plastic microbeads, were used extensively in the past. The House of Commons unanimously adopted a motion to ban the use of plastic microbeads in cosmetics and personal care products.
As a cosmetics trade association, where do you stand on this issue? How is the transition done gradually? Perhaps you could also share your thoughts on the Canadian Environmental Protection Act.
