Thank you, and to echo the immortal words of Mike Bossio, wow. There was an awful lot of stuff there.
Being late in the line-up certainly takes a lot of your questions out, and Mark Gerretsen took a couple of mine.
As a Nova Scotian, I get excited when Nova Scotians craft legislation or come up with really cool strategies or plans. In fact, just yesterday the Minister of Environment and Climate Change was in my riding of Dartmouth—Cole Harbour to recognize the things that Nova Scotia is doing to help with greenhouse gas emissions and climate change.
If we go back a bit—not too far back—we also have former MP Megan Leslie, who worked on the microbeads bill or motion, and had microbeads deemed CEPA toxic. The government recognized them as toxic under CEPA. I followed it in the news. You can still go into any store and you can buy several products with microbeads in them. My question is probably redundant. I probably know the answer.
I'm going to go to Lynda on this, because I felt like you were a race car that was really stuck in idle in your testimony, and you really wanted to get going. Does CEPA appropriately manage the risks? I guess I'm asking if you would extrapolate a little bit on the substitution principle and how we can get there. How can we put some teeth into this?
