Minister O'Regan, I'll read you a little clause from your bill, from your amendments:
the Governor in Council may, for the purpose of the protection of the environment, make regulations prohibiting, in respect of any portion of the offshore area that is specified in those regulations and that is located in an area that is or, in the opinion of the Governor in Council, may be identified under an Act of Parliament or of the Legislature of the Province as an area for environmental or wildlife conservation or protection,
(a) the commencement or continuation of
(i) any work or activity relating to the exploration or drilling for or the production, conservation, processing or transportation of petroleum, or
(ii) an offshore renewable energy project;
Can you say, beyond reasonable doubt, that a clause like that would not give a tinge of uncertainty to investors who want to come to explore, or would they go somewhere else like the young fellow from Angola that was on the plane with you?
