Good morning. Thank you for being with us, in spite of the bad weather.
Mr. Guilbeault, this morning I have heard about the damage associated with cancellation of the ecoENERGY program and the fact that there is no federal national strategy. On that point, however, we might take a look at what that means in terms of jurisdiction. In any event, the government certainly has no long-term vision.
Mr. Whiting told us that this would hinder development. In terms of the absence of a carbon market, there is no absolute reduction target. That is a problem. Mr. Weis talked to us about policies. If I understood correctly, these are government policies, and they are harming the development of ecoENERGY programs.
What impact is this going to have on the development of renewable energy? Do you have the impression that we are going to fall so far behind we will be unable to catch up? The other witnesses can answer as well.
