Yes, I would say so. There are definitely environmental benefits to this—for sure. Again, you want to have an environment that exists where, yes, you can make those repairs but you can also get the parts you're going to need to do that.
On the one hand, the committee is already dealing with the right to repair legislation as put forward. My bill is going to be more so about making sure there's innovation in the sector to make sure that for the original piece that you're going to have, there will be innovation to grow and push the development of those products that are going to last longer and be better going forward.
Generally when you provide consumers with the option to buy a couple of different objects of the same kind, yes, they're going to buy a cheaper one sometimes, just simply because it's cheaper, but the reality is that you're going to buy the same thing three times, whereas if you would have paid a bit more for the higher-quality, quality-built product, it would have lasted longer.
If there's more competition, if there are more people pushing and driving that innovation, we should, hopefully, have more high-quality pieces that people can buy, but that also bring down the cost of purchasing. That way, the people who are buying the cheaper pieces could afford to buy the higher-quality ones because there are just more pieces available. They would be more apt to buy something that lasts longer at a better price.
