We're working with a number of international jurisdictions, particularly in Europe. Less than a year ago, we organized a workshop on energy labelling and disclosure to look at best practices, but also to be able to share some of what we do well in Canada. When we look at a province like Ontario, which has already put into legislation the mandatory disclosure of large-building energy use, we're able to share those practices to help bring along those who are perhaps behind us. We're also able to learn from those who are doing really great things and can look at those options for ourselves.

Thanks, Raj.
To our guests, thank you very much for your testimony and good answers to the questions. Obviously, you heard that more information was required. The committee asked for a few things. We'll be looking forward to getting those from you—and quite quickly, if you don't mind. We have a short time frame for our study. If you think of anything else that you wanted to say or should say, or we should know about as we're moving forward with this, please send that to us. We'd really appreciate it.
I will now suspend for ever so short a time, because we do have only a few minutes until everybody has to rush off and I have some committee work to do.
Thank you very much.
