Unanimity for Quebec; that's fantastic.
I have a very quick question for Ms. Yedlin.
Ms. Yedlin, in response to an earlier question, you said that you need certainty to move this project forward and that regulatory barriers were the reason the government had to get involved.
In my opinion, the first principle of capitalism is that private companies assume the risk. It strikes me as odd that, when it comes to oil infrastructure, apparently the government needs to assume the risk.
We've talked to many big oil companies about carbon capture and sequestration, but nobody wants to take a chance on improving their greenhouse gas reduction practices without government support. For major infrastructure like the Trans Mountain expansion project, or TMX, private companies seem unwilling to take on the risk.
I'm going to ask you a very simple question about something that's bugging me: Is Canadian oil profitable?
