Thank you.
I'm going to go back to Brian, if I could.
Mr. Kingston, you spoke about your one recommendation about the 2035 sales mandate and your hope that the government would scrap that mandate. It's your notion of being a departure from that long-standing integration—the creation of the Auto Pact in the sixties—that we've worked together to create and how, again, it may negatively impact the Canadian auto sector and jobs.
When I talk about the GM facility, it's close to my heart. I spent four summers there. GM was good to me, so I'm good to them. I bought a 2022 GM Enclave. It was made in Michigan, but the engine was made in St. Catharines. I took great delight in seeing GM make that notification last year, saying that they were going to build EVs there. However, then they put the pause in, and they took out the V6 line that actually produced the engine in my vehicle. It could still be making engines there today, yet that's been stopped.
The mandate.... What we need to do is regulate the outcome, not the choice for the consumer. Would you not agree?
