I see that situations are similar from place to place. That's why the idea of a moratorium is increasingly widespread in Quebec, at least so that we can review our legislation, since this issue is governed by an old Quebec mining act. So it's inadequate. It's time we were able to properly gather information and inform the public, who were already very concerned about drinking water. Thank you.
Ms. Pike, I'd like to tell you I profoundly disagree with you on almost everything you say.
I would remind you that natural resources are a provincial jurisdiction and that, if we had to begin talks, we might perhaps have to reopen the Constitution. I don't think that's really what the members around this table want.
If we have to establish an agreement between the provinces on the free movement of energy, if it's as hazardous as the manpower agreement with regard to recognition and credentials, that may be difficult. Quebec currently agrees more readily with France on labour force credentials. They've reached about 100 agreements on credentials, much more than in Canada. Consequently, if we use this file as an example, yours could be quite hard to manage.
That was a comment.
Thank you.
