Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Thank you, everybody, for being here. I'm going to focus my questions on the governance side and the accountability side.
Page 1 of chapter 1 of the report talks about responding to climate change, management across multiple departments, and the challenge of that. It also talks about levers, resources, and expertise to manage this adequately.
When we then go further into the report, on page 10 it talks in paragraph 1.15 about the 1998 report, saying we had sporadic performance. In paragraph 1.16 it refers to where the 2005 Standing Committee on the Environment reported, and again there was no leadership of this structure.
I want to point to paragraph 1.21, which says Environment Canada currently has the leading responsibility, and then there are other statements that say Treasury Board Secretariat should take the lead in these programs that go across. We then have the Climate Change Secretariat, which was phased out in 2004 and which had a leadership role. How can you help me reconcile all these people who were in charge, and what are your thoughts on that?
