Thanks, Chair, and thank you to our witnesses.
Ms. Dowdeswell, some have commented that the concern about the impact on water quality--that was the focus of your work--by the oil sands was simply a public relations concern rather than an actual concern; it was just a matter of getting the message out about the impact of the projects, more than understanding the impacts themselves. I've heard this from a number of industry leaders and various ministers of government.
Let me ask you that question directly. Do you think this is simply a public relations exercise to get better at the water quality monitoring around the oil sands?
