Absolutely. The clean electricity ITC is a vital part of it. I think the latest addition of the potential content requirements being consulted on right now is an example of where in the electricity strategy we need to ensure that our trade, economic and electricity policies are coordinated.
If we're putting requirements for Canadian-made parts that aren't manufactured, we do risk adding costs and timelines to clean electricity projects. While the clean electricity ITC is a vital part of lowering costs and lowering electricity bills for Canadians, we do need to be very deliberate about how we apply those content requirements. Using them instead as a bonus process, where the ability to supply Canadian supply chains adds to the bid and has additional benefits as opposed to a strict restriction, will ensure the best of both worlds.
