Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
As the Union des producteurs agricoles has indicated to us, proposed subsection 48.12(1) would make the agriculture or forestry producer liable if their operations cause a rupture in a pipeline. This conflicts with proposed paragraph 86(2)(d), which provides that a land accession agreement must include an “indemnification” clause. This proposed amendment would overcome that conflict and I think solve this problem that exists in the bill as it is.
