I call this meeting to order.
Welcome, Mr. Rowe. It looks as though he's had a good, vigorous walk. He's raring to go.
Let me acknowledge that we are meeting on the unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinabe nation.
Welcome to meeting number 43 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Natural Resources.
Today's meeting is taking place in hybrid format.
Let me remind the participants of the following points: Please wait until I recognize you before speaking. For those participating by video conference—we have two this afternoon—click on the microphone icon to activate your mic, and please mute yourself when you are not speaking.
Let me remind you that committee members may ask questions in either English or French. If you will need interpretation, please take a moment now to prepare your earpiece and select the listening channel you need in advance in order to take full advantage of the time allotted for questions and answers.
As a reminder—not that this happens all the time—all comments should be addressed through the chair.
Colleagues, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2) and the motion adopted on Thursday, April 23, 2026, the committee shall resume its study of Canada's electrification, energy self-sufficiency and domestic energy security.
Let me welcome our witnesses on your behalf.
On the screen, as an individual, we have Philippe Dunsky, former chair of the Canada electricity advisory council. From the Canadian Climate Institute, also by video conference, we have Kate Harland. From The Transition Accelerator, we have Mr. Moe Kabbara, chief executive officer, who's with us in person.
All witnesses here virtually have conducted the mandatory witness onboarding test.
Each of you will have five minutes for your opening remarks, after which we'll open the floor to questions and comments.
Mr. Dunsky, we're going to start with you. You have the floor for five minutes.
