Thank you, Mr. Chair.
We're pleased to have you back with us, Minister.
We had also discussed Bill S-3. I had assured you that I had no objection and would not do anything to prevent the bill from moving forward expeditiously. I believe things should go smoothly.
Since everyone seems to be cooperative, I hope that you will allow me to ask you a question about the energy sector.
In your address, you spoke more broadly about the energy sector. I'd like to raise a concern I have about the hydrogen strategy you are currently deploying. I am specifically referring to grey hydrogen. I don't think it should be part of a green shift.
Before implementing this strategy, I believe that it would be important for you to give consideration to the relationship between hydrogen production and what it means in terms of carbon. I don't know if you've been made aware of that.
