Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for the very good question.
In fact, the people of Alberta know how to count. I can actually say that Mr. Coffee's study states in particular that, with a national regulator, there could potentially be additional investments of more than $10 billion in Canada, which is not peanuts. With these investments, we could potentially create 65,000 jobs in Canada.
Therefore, the work we are doing will improve conditions in Canada so that investors will invest in Canada. Canada's population of only 34 million is equivalent to that of California.
I sincerely believe that it is in our interest to work together to establish a national commission.
