Thank you very much, Chair, and thank you, witnesses, for appearing here today. We really appreciate your insight.
Ms. Dovgal, in light of everything we know and the many things said in testimony today, we see some tension between prescriptive regulations and objective regulations and between modelling and the impact of modelling and how that all evolves. Something I was told by a NASA-involved scientist a while ago was that all models are wrong but some are useful. How do we select which ones are?
Could you comment on how government picking winners and losers and influencing things in a prescriptive way influences choices, like the Liberals maybe developing an affinity for the Keystone pipeline? How can we avoid massive waste in government from picking winners and losers by objective regulations?
