Absolutely, and this is something that this new government is very committed to. This is something about which we have had very detailed discussions within the department.
You mentioned carbon dioxide capture and storage. This is something in which we are investing in a project in Weyburn, Saskatchewan. This is something that I believe you will see happen very shortly. We have the ability, the technology, to capture 100% of the carbon dioxide gases and emissions from some of these large final emitters and pump back down into the ground.
We want to put in the resources required to do the science in order to see this move forward. We're also pushing the industry very hard so that they come to the table and put in their share as well. They can do a lot more, and they're very open to it. We're saying it's time for you to put in your share in. I will say that in all my meetings they have been very positive and receptive.
This technology is there now. So we're looking for the low-lying fruit. Where can we make significant gains on this file and clean up the air at the same time? These are very important priorities for this government, and we'll continue to support these projects. And my own opinion is that in years, not decades, we'll start seeing the recovery of carbon dioxide gases here in Canada on a commercial basis, such that we can put these carbon dioxide emissions back into the ground and prevent them from going up into the atmosphere. That's something that we're very committed to.
