Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to welcome our witnesses once again. We are always happy to see them.
A recent analysis by the Canadian Climate Institute concluded that carbon pricing for industries is the main driver of greenhouse gas emission reductions in Canada. Three hundred economists really supported this measure, which they recognized as one of the most effective and least invasive. The Conservative members from Quebec are naturally speaking for their leader by demanding that carbon pricing be abolished.
If carbon pricing were abolished at the federal level, what would the impact be on reduction efforts in Quebec, which has set up a very effective carbon market with California?
Would this unfairly penalize Quebec by leaving it to bear the burden of Canada's climate efforts alone?
