It's a great question.
I'll come back to our recommendations, and for good reason. Knowledge is key, and what we've seen in recent mandate letters around reliance on science and evidence-based decision-making is the right way to go. With that in mind, there is information we still need to have in hand to be able to make quality decisions that are thinking 10 and 20 years down the road, as has been indicated by some of the other panellists here today.
Public geoscience is very important in terms of its value to the Canadian public. We also see the government starting to take steps, like forming a pan-Canadian geoscience strategy. These are the types of interactions between the federal and provincial governments, all the way down to municipal governments, that need to be taken into consideration, so that when we think about access to land, energy demands and the impacts on potential local communities, these are thought out well in advance. That way, we don't have to make decisions in the short term that will put us behind our competitors with respect to participating in these opportunities.
