Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I have a question for Mr. Wudrick.
Mr. Wudrick, you were saying earlier that you represent an organization that's concerned about taxpayers and the costs they bear. Health Canada estimates that air pollution, especially in urban areas, causes 14,600 premature deaths every year and that the social, economic and public welfare consequences cost taxpayers $114 billion a year.
If we're talking about incentives for electric vehicles that reduce air pollution, as well as climate pollution, shouldn't we be considering those health benefits of improving air quality when we're looking at the impact on taxpaying citizens?
