Thank you, Mr. Falk. It's very nice of you.
Mr. Stewart, I might as well start with you. I'll read you this headline from the Financial Post. I'm sorry, Mr. Serré, it's not from the CBC. It says, “Climate crusaders are close to banning something that can save your family's life”. It goes on to say, “In Montreal, beginning in October [of this year], no traditional fireplace or wood stove 'may be used or left to be used' by any resident, according to a new city bylaw.” It also goes on to say that in Metro Vancouver they're “in the midst of a public consultation regarding its own proposed ban on fireplaces and wood stoves.” If approved, Vancouver residents in the metro area “would be required to register all wood-burning devices by 2022...as in Montreal...fireplaces and stoves would be ineligible for registration. In 2025, it would become illegal to use any unregistered wood-burning system...”.
First of all, I find that quite concerning because these activists would rather you freeze to death in the event of a power outage than use something they disagree with. However, you had said that you also are advocating for more wood pellets with government. Aren't you concerned that if the government can advocate for your industry, it can also, in this case, work against it?
