We will take it to a vote.
(Motion agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])
We are going to make that change.
There are two quick announcements before we begin with our witnesses today.
I have sent a letter to the Office of the Parliamentary Budget Officer requesting that the 2023 report on the energy sector and agriculture be updated. The House has not yet ratified a nomination for the appointment of a new Parliamentary Budget Officer, but the committee's request will promptly be brought to the attention of the Parliamentary Budget Officer once an appointment is made.
The next announcement is further to the motion adopted by this committee on April 14. Other committees have requested that the Major Projects Office and Dawn Farrell appear before them on April 28. This is not within our control, but we are working to schedule Ms. Farrell in. We are currently looking at the meeting on the 28th being on fresh water, because no one was available on the 28th. Then we hope that the meetings on the 30th and May 5 work for ECCC, the Secretary of State for Nature, the Parks Canada Agency, Ms. Farrell, Simon Donner and Catherine Abreu.
The clerk has been hard at work, trying to get all of those fit in on the 30th and May 5, but it's still a bit of a question mark. If we have to go out another week to schedule them in, we will, but we should get a final confirmation tomorrow. We will share that with the committee once we do.
I'd like to welcome the witnesses we have here today.
In person, we have Caroline Brouillette, the executive director of Climate Action Network Canada. Online, we have Jim Keating, the chief executive officer of the Oil and Gas Corporation of Newfoundland and Labrador.
Witnesses, you will each have five minutes to provide opening remarks, and then we will go to questions from committee members. I have a little timer to give you a one-minute notice. When your time is up, please finish as quickly as possible.
Madame Brouillette, we will begin with you. The floor is yours.
