Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Today the committee members were sent the amended motion, the adjourned motion as amended. The preamble of the motion still makes reference to Alberta and Saskatchewan. The section of the motion that was amended on Monday, by the amendment made by Mr. Simard, touches the final paragraph of the motion. It removed “in Alberta” after the words “orphaned wells”, and it added the word “federal” in front of the word “regulations”.
In the French version of the motion, Mr. Simard's amendment removed the words “in Alberta” and added the word “federal” after “regulation” in the last paragraph.
I speak in English to address the question that's being posed. The preamble does indeed still reference Alberta and Saskatchewan, as that section of the motion was not touched on Monday. Merely the bottom paragraph was indeed amended, and that is indeed the text of the motion that has been circulated today.
