Natural Resources committee  There are two answers to your question. One, very simply, of course, is the investment in on-demand mobility. That's for smaller communities and probably outside the jurisdiction of this particular committee. For those communities that don't have public transit, on-demand mobilit

Natural Resources committee  I'm talking about green hydrogen.

Natural Resources committee  Thank you for your question. I'm going to answer in English, because it's easier for me. The basic answer to the question is, should we be investing in a price point parity program to bring diesel into price point parity with green hydrogen? Yes, that's for sure. In the short t

Natural Resources committee  Yes, sure.

Natural Resources committee  To keep it short and simple, I would say that tying the money to a timeline is probably the quickest and most efficient way to move at the municipal level.

Natural Resources committee  An obvious one would be cost profile versus timeline to deliver, for sure, and ridership—

Natural Resources committee  Yes, it should be changed. Ten years is a long period of time.

Natural Resources committee  For any transit....

Natural Resources committee  You're welcome.

Natural Resources committee  As a fellow Calgarian, I can tell you that it's one of the things that I personally have been watching to try to understand why it's not moving forward. In a rail sector, there is a different dialogue, compared to that of buses. There's a different kind of procurement at play.

Natural Resources committee  Thank you very much to the committee, and thank you for the opportunity to appear before the Standing Committee on Natural Resources. My name is Josipa Petrunic.
