Thank you.
Thank you for your presentation. I'm very interested to learn of your commitment to environmental sustainability. I think it's an important goal that we all share.
Some of my questions have been asked, especially by Monsieur Cardin, but I wanted to explore the offshore oil and gas a little more, especially in regard to the west coast. You mentioned that the provincial government is asking for a lifting of the moratorium. Where is the industry at on that? You talked about a timeframe, and I know there are some significant issues. What do you see as a timeframe for that?
On the softwood issue and the $400 million allocation, I understand that's Canada-wide, over two years. How much of that is dedicated to the issue of the pine beetle? That's my second question.
With regard to water, I have a question on that as well. I think I'll follow up on the issue, because what I wanted to know was this. What does the department see for the future with regard to water? You talked about mapping the aquifers and finding out what we have. I think I'll continue on with Monsieur Cardin's question on how you see water as a resource.
I think I'll leave it at that because I have a very short time.
