Thank you very much, Chair.
I want to thank the officials for coming. It's always great when we can have you here to ask questions directly. I appreciate that.
First, I want to follow up on Ms. Block's comments earlier on the development of Canada's offshore resources being essential not only to residents of Newfoundland and Labrador and Nova Scotia, but to all Canadians. The public needs and wants to be assured it's being done with appropriate regulations so they know it's being done safely.
I think this is a critical piece of legislation. You talked about Bill C-5 having the most strident workplace and environmental standards. I'm wondering if you can tell us how the standards that are included in it compare to those in other countries.
