It's wild that the government seems to think there needs to be a $275-million office to tell you, the regulator, what to do and proponents where they have to go.
In September, NRCan said at this committee, “The goal is to get those assessments down to under two years for all projects.” That's the goal that both the Prime Minister and the minister have cited, although the government rejected my amendment to insert the two-year timeline into Bill C-5.
Could the officials from NRCan tell Canadians what concrete steps you're taking to reduce assessments, in a recommendation one way or the other, down to two years?
