Natural Resources Committee on Sept. 16th, 2024

[Tracy Sletto]

Those are excellent themes. We'd be pleased to provide the committee with more information on those matters.

When you speak about condition compliance, it is a major focus for us as a regulator, of course, to ensure that not only the specific conditions—there were 156 of them associated with this project—but all of those requirements that are part of our regulatory framework are adhered to. Our compliance verification activities are not limited to those conditions but to the entire regulatory framework, and it's quite robust.

In terms of safety and conditions related to economic conditions or other indigenous advisory and monitoring conditions, for example, our team works very closely with our IAMC partners to ensure those conditions are all met and satisfied in terms of their adjudicative role.

[Julie Dabrusin, Liberal, Toronto—Danforth, ON]

To date, have you actually found that they're in compliance?

[Tracy Sletto]

We require compliance, and yes, we work very closely to ensure that's the case. The various conditions are at various stages of compliance because of their time frames, and again, our oversight is for the life cycle of the project, not just for construction.

[The Chair, Liberal, George Chahal]

Thank you, Ms. Dabrusin.

Thank you to the witnesses for joining us today and providing testimony.

[Shannon Stubbs, Conservative, Lakeland, AB]

I have a point of order, Chair. I know you constantly have to school me on the rules and regulations around here, but I hope I'm doing my job on behalf of the people of Lakeland and Canadians.

Thanks for your testimony today. Would you be willing to come back, if we asked you to, after the adjudication around tolls to talk about some of these issues a little bit more, just for the importance of transparency to all Canadians?

[Tracy Sletto]

We are happy to support the committee in whatever way would be best.

[The Chair, Liberal, George Chahal]

That's not a point of order, but thank you, colleagues. We'll see you on Thursday. Have a great—

[Charlie Angus, NDP, Timmins—James Bay, ON]

I have a point of order. They did agree.

[The Chair, Liberal, George Chahal]

Thank you, Mr. Angus, as well.

Colleagues, we'll see you on Thursday. Have a great next few days and a great start to the.... I'm sorry. Wednesday at 4:30 is the next meeting.

Thank you once again to the witnesses for joining us.

The meeting is adjourned.
