Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to apologize to the witnesses here. You heard a statement earlier by my honourable colleague from Malpeque, who said that 98% of benefits during COVID went to the province of Alberta, if we heard that correctly. I want to assure you there is some numeracy involved in the House of Commons finance committee. We got it checked and we want to make sure that's part of the record. I'm certain he will appreciate the correction that we're putting on the record here.
I will now turn to Mr. Viau.
Mr. Viau, I am sorry, I will have to ask my questions in English, because I have to be exact.
You talked a lot about CCUS, carbon capture utilization and storage, and yet every world body says that carbon capture utilization and storage will be essential to meeting our actual decarbonization goals going out to 2050. If every other body in the world is saying this is essential and you're saying we shouldn't participate in it, who do you suppose is wrong?
