Thank you, Chair.
Thanks to all of our witnesses for your expertise.
I'm going to start with Mr. McGowan.
The Alberta Federation of Labour and the energy workers you represent were really out front on this issue and really pushed the Liberal government on the issue of getting tax credits and a program like the IRA. I think it was widely expected that Alberta would be first out of the gate given the huge potential, level of expertise, opportunity and entrepreneurial spirit.
I'd like to get a sense of what it's meant since the Danielle Smith government decided to put a spike in clean energy investments. We've been told that upwards of $35 billion in projects are now on hold or pulling out. Could you tell us what the decision by the Conservatives in Alberta to attack clean energy has meant for energy workers in Alberta?
