Thanks, Mr. Chair.
I appreciate the witnesses' being here today to start this new study.
I have a number of questions. I'm going to be asking for some information, so I'll get right at it. I'm deeply concerned about the negative impact of the government's policies on the oil and gas sector. Before the government goes to make any further decisions, it's imperative that we get a sense of the number of jobs directly or indirectly related to the oil and gas sector. I'm wondering if you could table with the committee any information you have on how many current jobs are either directly or indirectly related to the oil and gas sector, broken down by province.
Mr. Chair, I could go through these, but is there any comment on that? I'm assuming they can provide that.
