Madam Speaker, I would like to echo the comments of the member across the way. It is great to have you in the chair and I look forward to working with you in that position.
I welcome the member for Skeena—Bulkley Valley to this place. He is presenting something that has many angles to it.
The member mentioned precast concrete being developed in rural Canada. I am thinking of chips from sawmill operations as biomass for some of the infrastructure projects that may end up in larger centres, the role that innovation plays in rural communities moving infrastructure forward and how to audit that.
How might that be included in today's discussion? How do we include the developments from rural Canada contributing to infrastructure goals overall in the climate change goals that we have as the federal government?
