Thank you, Madam Chair.
Good afternoon, everyone.
I'm not a regular member of the committee, so I apologize if my questions have already been asked. I'm replacing Linda Duncan, who left.
As I understand it, you are already working in the foreground. I had met Normand Mousseau, a researcher from the Université de Montréal, who works in the field of climate change. One of the things he told me was that there was a lack of coordination at the federal level, and even at the provincial level, in Quebec. He mentioned that several measures have not been included in federal policies, for example with respect to the use and reuse of local business materials for waste reclamation and construction in a circular economy. These measures are not enshrined in the building code standards that apply to the construction sector.
In your opinion, should the standards of the National Building Code be changed? What should be added with regard to the circular economy?
You talked a lot about passive heating, and we heard a lot about biomass or biofuel. Is this part of your initiatives? In order to reach our greenhouse gas reduction targets by 2030, should this be imposed by the federal government?
My question is for all of you.
