Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Colleagues, it's always good to see you.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to your Canadian Parliament.
We all know climate change has real consequences that we have to deal with. Our common goal is to reduce pollution and emissions to ensure a better future for our children. We each have our own ideas about how to achieve that objective.
I want to start with Ms. Bak.
You delivered the first words of your speech in impeccable French, so allow me to speak to you in French.
You said that companies that disclose their information are six times more efficient and generate six times more sustainable revenue than those that do not. I would just like to know how you came up with that figure.
Do you look at all industries and all companies of all kinds, or do you categorize them? I would imagine that a high-tech company is likely to have a much lighter environmental footprint than a company that produces, say, iron for very specific parts. Did you distinguish between those types of companies?
