Thank you, Madam Chair and honourable committee members.
On behalf of the Alberta's Industrial Heartland Association's board of directors, thank you for providing the industrial heartland association and our partners in the industrial heartland region the opportunity to present to you and share our views and our experiences with you during the review of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act.
My name is Ed Gibbons. As mentioned, as a municipal councillor for the City of Edmonton, I'm also the chair of the industrial heartland association. Joining me today in Ottawa is Pam Cholak, director of stakeholder relations for Alberta's Industrial Heartland Association.
We are appreciative to the committee for including via videoconference in Edmonton representatives from two of our five partner organizations in Alberta's Industrial Heartland Association.
I will turn it over to Pam, and I would like to thank those on the video for coming in as well.
Thank you.
