Thank you.
Mr. Parsons, I'm a Bloc Québécois member. I focus on respect for provincial jurisdictions. I don't think that Bill C‑49 poses any problems in this area. However, I do want to explain my reservations about this bill.
Witnesses have come here to share their perspective that fossil fuels and renewable energy are on an equal footing. Some people may consider this an issue. As a result, it can't be said that this bill aligns perfectly with the energy transition. In my opinion, the energy transition means moving from an economy based on carbon‑intensive energy to clean, low‑carbon energy.
In your presentation, you spoke about what the transition means for Newfoundland and Labrador. I have a simple question for you. Shouldn't the bill include clear statements that we're committed to clean energy? That isn't the case right now.
