I agree. There are major, major challenges here. We should forget this agreement, this socioeconomic agreement, so called, and start from a new page now that we have the JRP’s excellent insights into our needs.
I also want to comment on the transparency and peculiarity of this public process. Well before these governments’ initial responses were drafted, the National Energy Board held its final public hearings to gather the comments of others with a critical stake in this outcome. These groups had to do that without knowing how governments would react so their comments could not be informed by the critical input of governments’ response. Worse than this reversal of process is the fact that we don’t know whether the government responses will be made public before they are sent to the National Energy Board so the public will have an opportunity to comment. I urge this government to ensure that its final response to the NEB is publicly released, preferably before it is... And just because the Premier is busy speaking to somebody else, I’m going to repeat this. If I can have the attention of the Premier for just a minute. I urge this government to ensure… Thank you. I urge this government to ensure that its final response to the NEB is publicly released, preferably before it is supplied to the National Energy Board. And most especially, I urge aboriginal governments, through their critical review of the joint government response, to help ensure the rigorous and comprehensive response the JRP indicated is required, is indeed put in place. Mahsi.
