Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ambassador, I'd like to start with the international shipping industry.
Minister Guilbeault was quoted in the Toronto Star recently as saying that he was very supportive of the new proposed global carbon tax on international shipping. When he came to committee last week, he kind of pretended that he'd never said those words before.
I'm curious. Have you in your capacity been involved in any conversations with anybody within the government or the international community about this new global carbon tax on international shipping?
