Thank you, Mr. Chair. I think the scope of possibilities has widened in terms of how perhaps this department can maybe refocus its energy if the oil and gas industry is non-existent. So I'm just trying to understand whether this department would be perhaps a lead agency in terms of engaging. You know, there may be some consideration of developing at least the infrastructure so that in eventually, maybe 10 years, 20 years down the road, there's a need to access the oil fields and the gas fields that more likely haven't been found yet.
Is there perhaps some consideration of examining the pipeline infrastructure perhaps down the road that could be in parallel to this great propensity that we have of highway infrastructure? Is there some idea of a strategy that could be part of this oil and gas, at least discussion paper or strategy that might be developed? Mahsi.
