Thank you.
I have a brief question for Mr. Hannaford.
Earlier, the minister gave us the definition of an inefficient fossil fuel subsidy—a definition we had never gotten previously. In his response to me, he said that they covered all subsidies that boost oil and gas production and exports. I was very glad to finally have a definition.
Mr. Hannaford, does that mean the emissions reduction fund and, similarly, the $2.5 billion for carbon capture are subsidies that do not boost or accelerate exports or production?
For the purposes of the department, can they be described as subsidies that do not boost exports or production?
