Thank you very much, Chair.
Thank you, Minister, for coming before the environment committee. Likewise, it's the first chance that I've had to be engaged in this way since being appointed to the committee.
Regarding proposed section 9 specifically, and the possible effects that could be had on some oil field activities, such as hydraulic fracturing and whatnot, can you provide some comment as to whether or not that is something that is specified in this bill?
