Refine by MP, party, committee, province, or result type.
Agriculture committee Mr. Easter, you quite rightly described the city of Ottawa, but I'll offer a couple of observations. This has an agricultural dimension to it. It has an energy dimension to it. It has a climate change dimension to it. It has an air quality dimension to it. And there's no shortag

Agriculture committee If I may add, I'll give you a very practical example of information we're only finding out about now. We've recently been informed by Environment Canada that if you are a refiner who has a marketing presence in another province but not significant enough that you would be contra

Industry committee Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Industry committee Based on those that are willing to share it, yes.

Industry committee Sure, because that would also reflect volatility in crude oil. That would also be affected by things like speculation in the marketplace after the energy information agency reports their data on inventories. I'm not sure what the frequency is, but it's at least once a month.

Tony Macerollo
Industry committee I have two pieces of advice. Certainly, as one who for many years took calls on the subject on behalf of a member of Parliament, I told them to call the Canadian Petroleum Products Institute. In the absence of that, if you want to get into a detailed explanation, the crude oi

Tony Macerollo
Industry committee I fully expect that over the course of the day there have been many price increases and decreases, depending on where you are in the country. I've been in this job since November, and I just recently discovered that, for example, in British Columbia the price that you see outsid
June 18th, 2007Committee meeting
Tony Macerollo
Industry committee It may or may not, but what I would suggest is that Mr. McTeague has developed some mechanisms to determine where prices go. I think the other important indicator that I've learned is that if you actually take a look at the data releases by the energy information agency in the Un

Tony Macerollo
Industry committee I think we've answered the question. That may very well happen in some communities, but the only way you can get a comprehensive understanding of this is to do a proper study. You can do a study that looks at a local market, and it might verify your assumptions, but the Conferenc

Industry committee What day was it, sir?

Tony Macerollo
Industry committee I don't know the answer to that question—if in fact it's even true—but we'll get you that information.
June 18th, 2007Committee meeting
Tony Macerollo
Industry committee I'm sorry, I didn't catch all of that, sir.
June 18th, 2007Committee meeting
Tony Macerollo
Industry committee No, that is not how it's done. And I'm going to impute that you're referring to the study done by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, who talked about a psychological barrier. We reject that study. We reject the methodology outright. It is, to be perfectly blunt, an extr
June 18th, 2007Committee meeting
Tony Macerollo
Industry committee You're referring to the issue of structural separation, and that has been a hotly debated context across a number of industry sectors for which there's no definitive answer. We don't have complete structural separation in the telecommunications sector either.
