Environment committee  I'm sorry. We don't have any information specifically on that in front of us. I don't know, Drew, if you do, from your side.

Environment committee  Certainly, from our side.... When we look at a project, we obviously look to determine what material impact it will have on GHG reductions, what the potential efficacy of the technology is, and what the commercial business plan is, moving forward. Not all projects we see funded,

Environment committee  Generally speaking, our approach uses the best information possible to determine the potential future market and bankability of the project, as well as the efficacy of the technology. In doing that, we use the talents of all the folks around the virtual table with us today.

Environment committee  We have regular contact with the proponents. Our assessment of the projects requires them to bring forward very specific GHG emissions commitments associated with the projects. As part of our contribution to those projects, we actively track them during the full period of investm

Environment committee  Our investment strategy to date with the strategic innovation fund is to understand that while we need to put significant emphasis on large-scale projects that can scale up quite quickly, if we don't invest in early-stage technologies that can also help us meet our climate goal,

Environment committee  The strategic innovation fund is, in fact, available to all industries. As it is technology agnostic, we will fund any project that ultimately seeks to decarbonize an industry and reduce its GHG footprint from the existing situation. We're doing two things at the moment to try t

Environment committee  SDTC was the first organization to actively track GHG emissions across the federal government. Our understanding is that all of the projects they funded to date have material GHG reductions. Kendal, I don't know if you can provide further detail.

Environment committee  My understanding is that they are direct jobs. I don't know if Kendal has more specific information on the survey on salaries and employment from StatsCan. If not, sir, we can provide it to you later.

Environment committee  We're seeing a rapid increase in the development and deployment of clean technologies across the spectrum. That is happening globally. In fact, it is happening so fast we're finding it difficult to track with reliable statistics what is actually happening out there, especially ov

Environment committee  Perhaps I could take that on, on behalf of the departments participating in the hub. The hub is an interesting organization. It includes 17 departments and agencies. We collaborate in a number of ways. Pre-COVID, its most practical feature was that the majority of the departmen

Environment committee  My personal view is that it's indeed been effective. One of the things we succeed in doing, through the hub, is taking the burden off companies as they figure out where they need to go and how they need to navigate the system. The folks from all departments working in the hub s

Environment committee  Thank you very much. My name is Andrew Noseworthy, and I am the assistant deputy minister responsible for clean technology and clean growth at Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada, or ISED. My colleague, Kendal Hembroff, is here with me and will speak in a few mo
