Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I want to direct my questions to Mr. Wilson. We talked a little bit about non-trade barriers; historically, Canada has been the boy scout in the world when we're dealing with that issue. You, however, brought up something about our domestic industry. If we don't get our domestic house in order, we're going to have major problems and are not going to have to worry about these non-trade barriers.
You talked about capacity building and how important it is to have government policy here in Canada to support it. Interestingly enough, I was up in the House yesterday and I asked the minister a question in regard to pipelines, because we had the Prime Minister state in the election that he was going to, I think, phase out the oil sands, and he was in Europe last week saying he wished he could phase them out faster than he is doing. My question was about Canadian pipelines being built with Canadian pipe that is built with Canadian steel, creating Canadian jobs that help build such capacity.
How do you overcome things like this when you're trying to attract investment in order to build domestic capacity? In Canada we're a leader in the world in our energy sector. We export: we export a lot of intellectual property and our product. What's your plan to move forward, when we're having directions from the top that may not be in line with what needs to be done with our capacity-building requirements here domestically?
