Environment committee  Assuming by efficient subsidization you're actually targeting the application of renewables or clean technology into the oil and gas sector, yes, it would distinctly slow that, whether that be hydrogen, electrification, CCUS and others. There are certainly debates over the spec

Environment committee  I think that's key. The reality is that what we're looking for here across all of these sectors is that you need to remain competitive. It helps workers, the oil and gas business and the renewable businesses. You need predictable and stable policy that is actually equitable and

Environment committee  We could certainly examine that. The reality is that it really depends on which particular piece you're speaking about. Similar to you, what we're looking for are some additional definitions on what an inefficient subsidy is, what a subsidy is. It really depends on how they're cl

Environment committee  I think in general I would look at that from a production standpoint versus a transition or a clean-tech application standpoint. Decades ago, it was clear that there were a number of opportunities that Canada wanted to pursue to grow oil and natural gas production. I think with

Environment committee  I do recognize that, unfortunately, there are those out there who, for various reasons, disagree with perhaps a specific technology, whether it's geothermal or CCUS or some hydrogen aspects. I personally think that's not valid. I think we're looking for GHG reductions as quickly

Environment committee  Hello. Thank you very much for the opportunity to present today. My name is Tristan Goodman. I'm the president and CEO of the Explorers and Producers Association of Canada, which represents independent oil and gas producers across this country. First, I certainly recognize that

Natural Resources committee  No, that's actually not what I'm trying to say. The reality is that you may need to introduce new policy. A democratically elected government obviously has every right to do that, and we'll work with whatever policy is put in place. What I'm trying to get at there is that there

Natural Resources committee  I'm always cautious to agree with Ms. Pierce, but the reality is that, yes, we generally would agree with that.

Natural Resources committee  Thank you.

Natural Resources committee  I appreciate that question. Thank you very much. The reality is that a number of key frameworks for particularly the oil and gas business, from clean fuel standards to the carbon pricing environment to methane reductions, are driving behaviour and still remaining competitive, a

Natural Resources committee  I'll just add that, in the short term, to get to your next set of real reductions, you're looking at CCUS across this country, you're looking at exporting natural gas, using article 6 under the Paris Agreement, and you're looking at further methane reductions, all of which actual

Natural Resources committee  Yes. I have a couple of comments. First, we all recognize that we have a serious problem before us here, and the reality is that we are making progress. There are quite a few positives. First, we are seeing the emergence of this clean-tech sector. Many of the members that we're

Natural Resources committee  Tim, would you like to go first?

Natural Resources committee  I would echo the comments. I would effectively say that we have many partnerships in Canada. Many industries rely on partnerships with various governments across multiple sectors. Providing strong policy is going to be important, and there are going to have to be considerations a

Natural Resources committee  I guess I would respond that there's no question that it's a major economic driver. In addition to that, the reality is that it is actually, as many governments are indicating, one of the key ways that you're going to be able to move through an energy transition in a successful m
