Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
I will start with Mr. Whittaker and the issue of wind energy. I am in favour of making wind energy—a green energy—a priority. In your first request, you talk about establishing a power grid in Canada. You say that a wind energy integration study is urgently needed, but natural resources are a provincial responsibility. The country is made up of provinces, so the country is not unitarian.
Despite its abundant hydro resources, Quebec, in particular, has developed wind energy and integrated it into the Hydro-Québec grid. The company has market agreements with its neighbours, namely, Ontario and the northern United States.
I would like to know what you mean by a so-called integration grid. What is missing that each province could develop on its end?
