Natural Resources committee  This government has a 2030 target.

Natural Resources committee  This government is confident that we'll get there.

Natural Resources committee  Yes, we have, certainly.

Natural Resources committee  I think the government is wrestling with the question of what is the right balance in terms of driving domestic reduced demand for oil and gas—something we can control and where we are well ahead of the rest of the world—versus the question of what the role is of Canadian oil and

Natural Resources committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. It's a pleasure to be here today to talk about these issues. As this committee has emphasized, the ongoing energy transition presents both opportunities and challenges, and will require the transformation of Canadian industries and the labour market. The g

Natural Resources committee  I'm not aware of oil and gas sector officials writing our plan. Certainly none have contributed to drafting a single word of any regulation for which I'm responsible.

Natural Resources committee  I think he was referring to reports that he expected with respect to the methane equivalency agreements, which would not be 399. He was expecting us to produce one per year, and we produced one so far over the three years that the agreements have been in place.

Natural Resources committee  There are a couple of answers to that. First, we do attempt to project the impact of each regulation that we develop. We also report on overall emissions from the economy, which are a result of a variety of inputs. The country has, for the first time, reduced its total emission

Natural Resources committee  I was trying to describe what these regulations do. These regulations establish limits on the fleet-wide emissions that each manufacturer can provide in Canada and require those to be reduced. Coming back to one of the themes that you've heard both from the commissioner and from

Natural Resources committee  No, I think what the commissioner is getting at is when we do a regulatory impact analysis statement, we attempt to identify the impact of a regulation not only on its intended objective here of reducing emissions but also on costs and benefits. That impact in turn—

Natural Resources committee  Would you like me to answer to your question?

Natural Resources committee  I'm sorry. Do you have a question?
