Yet, Minister, we know for certain that the coal combustion growth is going to continue in Asia for decades yet. Look at the number of projects that are on the books or are being built in Asia. They're looking for cleaner alternatives, including Canadian liquefied natural gas, and we're not able to provide it here. The reason for this is that we no longer have clarity of outcome. That has been clear in the regulatory process under your government, and it does push the timeline. In business, time is money, as you would know.
You did mention the indigenous partnerships as well. In this set of estimates, you're talking about $6 million more for indigenous natural resources partnerships and contributions of $3 million in support of indigenous economic development, so that's $9 million more, yet what we've forgone here in Kitimat alone is about a $2-billion economic benefit for the Haisla First Nation and tens of millions of dollars in contracts for all 16 first nations along the Pacific Trail Pipeline that was going to be built along the way.
Putting more money into these partnerships to replace the billions and tens of millions that were spent by these companies is a drop in the bucket for indigenous economic reconciliation. How do you square that?
