I do not have much time, so I am going to ask you another very important question.

You compared Canada to other G7 countries. I like international comparisons. However, I wonder about the choice of establishing 1990 as the beginning of the comparison period, because climate action really began in 2015. In any event, over the past two years, Canada has seen the largest emissions reduction of any G7 country.

In your view, what factors are responsible for this very strong reduction in emissions in Canada compared to other G7 countries?
