Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I would like to reassure our witnesses. There is no way Canada will withdraw from the Paris Agreement, as the Conservatives would obviously like us to do.
Canada will not isolate itself from the countries which have signed on to the agreement. We will continue to develop good policies to reach our objectives and sustain a world we can all live in.
I simply want to reassure everyone that this, of course, remains one of the objectives of Canadians.
I would like to hear Mr. Usher and Mr. Youngman speak to the importance of putting a price on pollution as an economic mechanism to achieve the fair green transition.
