Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses for joining us.
I'd like to start with Mr. Williams to talk EVs and climate.
You said that we're all in on the EV transition, and that you're supportive of electric vehicles but at a pace we can manage. I think we're all in agreement that there needs to be a balanced approach, but of course we all know, based on our experience with all kinds of industries, that sometimes the pace we want to move at is not necessarily the pace that will slow climate change. There's an imperative there that we're all trying to wrestle with.
If not mandates, then what? What can industry do and what can government do to accelerate the pace of that transition, to make it as rapid as possible but within the means of the capacity of these vehicles at this time in terms of the technology?
