Thank you, Chair. I'll keep my questions brief.
I want to get back to the flow-through share tax credit for mining. I represent a resource-rich part of the country, in northern British Columbia, and this is an important issue.
I have two principle questions.
The last time you presented, Mr. Cook, and again today, you talked about the association of other factors. Regarding the effect of the tax credit, we see tax credits that help with efficiency and also produce results.
Has the department done a study as to what the impact has been over these—what is it?—seven years of renewal on this particular tax credit to understand what the impact has been for the mining exploration economy?
