Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Hannaford, we talked about the energy boards in Atlantic Canada as being a vehicle for regulatory certainty. The minister talked about the hope that this spring there could be legislation tabled. Obviously the timeline is also dependent on the provincial government in Nova Scotia. Then there was also talk of a potential date for when bids could actually start being accepted. I think the minister mentioned 2025.
What's that timeline from when the legislation is passed? Is there some upscaling that has to happen in terms of those agencies?
This is a really critical race. How do we make sure we can approve projects as quickly as possible in that global race?
