Natural Resources committee  It's just kind of funny, though, that the two topics that deal with—

Natural Resources committee  I understand.

Natural Resources committee  Thank you, Mr. Minister. Yes, for getting remote communities off diesel, we received $300 million. We've already received funding. As you know, we have I think more than 120 projects across the country that are helping communities to get off this dependency on diesel. What we a

Natural Resources committee  With respect to the emissions reduction fund, as the minister mentioned, we already have a price on carbon and we have already created standards governing fuels. We created the fund to address the issue of methane emissions. We have also introduced regulations for methane. We're

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  Yes. That's why I said that, in the future, there will still be demand for gas and oil, but that the demand will be stringent. People are looking for the cleanest possible oil and gas. Investors increasingly want to make sure that they're investing in companies that follow these

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  Of course. I know that you're meeting with the ambassador, who will be in an even better position to tell you this. We've always been effective in our relationship with the Americans, because we've always worked together. When Canada's team works together, it works well with the

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  Yes. Obviously, there are opportunities. Hydro-Québec is already very active, as you know, in New York, Maine and Massachusetts, I believe. There are discussions and many possibilities for hydroelectricity, but also for all renewable energy, such as wind energy and any form of e

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  First of all, the minister said that Line 5 was not negotiable. I think he fully understands and appreciates the importance of the oil crossing the border. As to your question, the committee will come out with a report, which we will make sure is delivered, which, I hope, will

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  Our policy in this regard is to encourage the production of cleaner fuel. I'm talking about the decarbonization of fuel. It's not black and white, and you can't say that some are good and some are not. We judge them on the basis of carbon intensity. We're lucky in Canada because

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  Glenn, do you want to answer this one, especially on Line 5?

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  We're always open to negotiating an agreement with the U.S., but we need to make sure it wants to do the same. As long as it does not, we will continue, of course, to win in front of any processes that are created under the existing agreements. Our hope, of course, is that as soo

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  It's the supply chain itself that finds its way. The way it works as you have seen—and Mr. Strahl referred to the barricades, for example, in the past and what happened at the time when the rails were struck. The train used different rails to ride to the station.

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  It's the same thing. I cannot speak for them. I don't know what they have done in terms of contingency plans. I don't know how far they have been on this. I know they know that if there's no pipeline, there will actually be consequences, from a supply chain perspective. They have

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  In 15 or 20 seconds, I will say that we of course have internal collaboration with our different departments—like we did at the time of the barricades—on how we work together in any circumstances. We also have, as I mentioned, regular discussions with provinces, and we also talk

Economic Relationship between Canada and the United States committee  I would turn to Glenn, who has been in touch on a regular basis, especially with Enbridge, to maybe give us a sense of the current discussions that are happening at the state level.
