Thank you, Mr. Chair.
First of all, I would like to say to Ms. McDonald and Mr. Killeen that I did attend the last two Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada, or PDAC, meetings, and that I'm looking forward to attending the one in June if I can't attend the one in March.
My question is for Mr. Breton.
Mr. Breton, I would like to hear your comments on the urgency of legislating now in order to keep pace with future development and to support the industry by offering it more predictability.
Should we recommend that Environment and Climate Change Canada step up to the plate and introduce a zero-emission vehicle bill this spring in order to meet electric vehicle sales targets?
When a state legislates to improve a citizen's access to electric vehicles, does this have an impact on the market and on the number of vehicles available?
