I had 38 years in the coal industry and have experienced the "glass half full" of the transition programs in place. I recall a meeting with Minister McKenna in 2016 when she described how the coal industry was going to be used as the template for the oil sands, and yet, as has been stated already, the template is a "glass half full." There were lots of holes in it. On the federal end, what we actually saw were the one-stop transition centres, which were excellent. The rest is still waiting to be seen.
Probably the most important point I could add is that it's imperative that the correct department handles the transition [Technical difficulty--Editor]
