I appreciate that, Mr. Chair. This is a precedent-setting moment for me in the 42nd Parliament, and I appreciate it. That's to all members of the committee.
Just to give you a head's up, my questions will be to Dr. Pedersen, but I must stop and say how indebted all Canadians are to you, Cindy, for your bravery.
Robert-Falcon has made the point that she was persecuted by our federal government in the past and literally followed and snooped upon for standing up for children. I do hope that this government will not be filing a judicial review of the Human Rights Tribunal decision.
I just want to thank you.
Turning to Dr. Pedersen, I find your proposal intriguing. The reason I wanted to probe it a little bit is that I'm not sure I'm aware of some university work. I know McGill is doing good work on climate solutions. The University of Ottawa has a deep decarbonization group. Certainly I know the work that's going on at the University of Victoria.
Your proposal, as I see it, suggests that you could network and harness all the different university groups and NGO think tanks, and so on. Do you have any idea right now—or has anyone collected a basic database—of who's doing what, so that we know what the intellectual capacity you might want to harness is at the moment?
