Thanks, Chair. Once again my questions are for Mr. Cross and Mr. Dehejia.
We know that the demand for oil and gas is going to be strong until 2050. Mr. Cross, you mentioned things like regulations, and that we don't have enough pipelines in this country. We've been saying that. For the last eight years, we've seen a Liberal government that's anti-energy and anti-growth. I think one of your papers, Mr. Cross, literally says that Canada's anti-business culture undermines our growth. We've seen anti-energy bills like Bill C-69, the “no new pipelines” bill. We've seen a carbon tax that hasn't really helped the environment or helped emissions come down, and it's just made the cost of everything go up.
Would you both agree that some of these laws and some of these anti-energy bills are not letting Canada's growth rate increase and increase jobs in our economy?
