Perhaps when Mr. McGuinty gets his next time, he can use it to explain what happened during those ten years. It would be rather interesting to hear.
Mr. Thompson says in his opening statement, in paragraph 12, and Mr. Wrzesnewskyj alluded to it:
We point out that other countries have adopted quite a different approach. For example, in the United Kingdom and the United States, top-down direction on greening is given to government departments from the highest levels.
You spoke a little bit to the approaches taken by the U.K. and the U.S., and I was going to ask you about that, but I want to ask a bit about this top-down direction.
Is the top-down approach always better? For example, I think about a directive that would say everyone has to buy a specific type of environmentally friendly paper. Are there situations on the ground where a policy like that might actually hurt the environment, maybe because of shipping requirements that might incur higher emissions to get the paper to where it's needed?
