Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Today's discussion is extremely important, but above all, extremely beneficial.
Thank you to the witnesses for their input. I will try to ask each of them a question, time permitting.
I will start with you, Mr. Layzell. In your opening statement, you mentioned the different hydrogen colours, or types. The objectives of the hydrogen strategy for Canada are to promote the development and deployment of hydrogen, spur near-term investment, and develop new regulatory measures to achieve a net-zero emissions target by 2050.
As you said, though, if Canada wants to achieve those objectives, does it not need to distinguish between the different sources of hydrogen, grey, blue and green? The development of grey hydrogen could be another opportunity for the hydrocarbon market.
How should the government shape the strategy to foster the development of green hydrogen, first and foremost?
