Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
It's good to see you, Mr. Miller. On the NDP side of the House, we certainly appreciate your joining the NDP campaign to stop bulk water removals. As you know, in 1999 and 2007 we brought forward motions to the House of Commons that very clearly raised concerns around bulk water exports. In both cases they were adopted by a majority of members of the House of Commons. There's no doubt we're onside with the majority of the Canadian population on that issue, so we're very happy you're bringing this forward.
I did have some concerns and just wanted to get some clarification from you, particularly when we look at clause 3, regarding bulk removal. I will quote from your bill, “Bulk removal does not include the taking of a manufactured product that contains water, including water and other beverages in bottles or other containers, outside a water basin”.
I'd like you to explain what size and scope the containers and the removals are limited to. What is the framework around that particular clause in the bill?
