Thank you, Madam Chair.
I actually have two questions or comments, so I'll put them both on the table, and leave them open.
First, because I am someone who is somewhat new to the understanding of this issue, could we take an example of either a cosmetic or a food or something that's commonplace and follow it through from development into the product so I could understand the pathway of a nanoparticle in a cosmetic product or food?
Second, we have a local issue that has caused a great deal of angst in our community. They were looking at having a gasification process for creosote railway ties. Locally, the provincial Minister of the Environment approved it because of the emissions. A lot of the backlash from the community was related to the fact that while the emissions might be small to gasify creosote, we really don't know what the nanoparticles would be, and what the issues would be with the nanoparticles.
I guess I'd like to hear perspectives on both those trains of thought.
