I think I should let him answer. That was terrific.
I have a couple of things to say. The first is that I'm really looking forward to Sunday and Monday in Toronto, at the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada meeting, which is one of the most important mines meetings in the world. Thousands of people come to Canada, and they come to Canada for a good reason: because we're leaders.
You talked about regulation. Everybody wants to make sure that regulations are streamlined, efficient, and don't unnecessarily get in the way of any proponent. However, we've had a problem with public confidence in the regulatory system, and we're out to change and improve it.
During the course of the next little while, maybe we can talk about the five principles that Minister McKenna and I tabled a few weeks ago, which will determine the short-term approach. But in the long term, we want to modernize the National Energy Board. We understand that in the long term we have to have a regulatory process that does carry the confidence of Canadians. I will be looking to members of this committee for their good advice on that modernization and review, as the National Energy Board begins to pick up steam in the short and medium terms. We'll certainly be looking for people in the mining sector as knowledgeable as you are about ways in which we can ensure that modernization and reform facilitates confidence in the process and therefore speeds the way to sustainable projects.
