Thank you, Chair.
I'm glad that we're going to have an opportunity to question Enbridge at committee. This is of particular interest for Hamilton, in my riding. There are two Enbridge pipelines that are of local interest.
Line 5, which goes from the U.S. Midwest through to Sarnia, is critical for Ontario's economy. It carries, I believe, fracked oil from the U.S. Midwest. Because it crosses the border, there is a substantial risk to Ontario's economy with ongoing tensions with the U.S. The other one is Line 9, which goes through Hamilton. It has been a source of environmental concerns for years. It's listed as a high risk for ruptures and has a history of leaks. There's local indigenous opposition.
I'm very interested to find out what Enbridge has to say about those two issues local to Ontario and to my riding. Hopefully, again, our intention is to move away from reliance on U.S. sources if there are better options.
Thank you.
