Natural Resources committee  Bon. The gas pipeline is regulated by the NEB. We have a complete pipeline integrity system that we require for all pipelines regulated by the NEB, and we have been successful.

Natural Resources committee  We don't produce such a document, and I'm not certain that I could retrieve one, but I will try to see what we can do. Talking to our researchers, we may be able to source a document.

Natural Resources committee  The growth projections for--

Natural Resources committee  For our organization?

Natural Resources committee  Sorry, growth for the energy?

Natural Resources committee  We can provide you the preliminary numbers. What we found in our consultations is that we may have been a little high, and we are going to change those growth numbers a little bit, based upon the consultations. But I will provide to you what we provided others; it will probably s

Natural Resources committee  Each of the scenarios has a different answer to that. For example, the “fortified island” scenario is a scenario where you look at trying to match the needs of North America in totality. It tends to promote the idea of large infrastructure. Large hydro would be part of it. Any la

Natural Resources committee  I'll ask my colleague Mr. Modray, who has spent a fair amount of time looking at the emergence of alternative technologies.

Natural Resources committee  Yes, but first of all this is just the generation; it doesn't detail the emissions. There is an aspect in here that talks about carbon sequestration and what the effects would be if it were to be included in this. In the triple E scenario, as I said, we put together what we tho

Natural Resources committee  Our work has indicated that it will always be--and again, “always” is a very strong word--a mix going forward. Certainly the policy environment as well as the price environment that we're in now provides incentives in many areas, as the forestry folks were talking about, to move

Natural Resources committee  The line you're referring to is the production of gas from Canada. As a bit of background, the majority of Canadian gas currently comes from the western Canada sedimentary basin, and the basin is mature, in that the ability for the basin to increase its production is very much de

Natural Resources committee  No, the green below is.... One thing I should say is that this is “all of Canada” natural gas. I've been focusing on the western Canada sedimentary basin, but it is all of Canada. Concerning the green line, you may remember from the scenario that we used a much lower price for e

Natural Resources committee  That's a very good question. Time is very important when we are doing this work. This document comes from our consultation document, which we consulted with over the period probably from March to.... It's ongoing. Since then, the policy environment has changed significantly, and

Natural Resources committee  Yes, but I'd probably phrase it a little differently. We use scenarios because we can't predict the future. We can't predict the policy or environment that we're going to be working in, particularly up to the 2030 timeline, so we create a scenario. We have created three scenari

Natural Resources committee  We don't necessarily choose one option over the other. It is difficult for us to model. One scenario we have is what we call “continuing trends”, which takes into account all existing policy decisions. Those are changing rapidly. We're trying to model that. So that does make it
