Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize five colleagues who collectively have given more than 50 years of service to Canadians and are now moving on from federal politics. Laurier—Sainte-Marie First, I recognize the member forfor his unmatched environmental and climate advocacy. Saint-Hyacinthe—Bagot—Acton Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie I also commend the member forfor his work as an opposition
Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the member for Yorkton—Melville for her nearly 11 years of service. Earlier today, I made a member statement where I acknowledged five departing members of Parliament. I learned shortly after about her departure. If I could, I would revise my member statement to include six departing members. I got to spend a brief moment of time with the member on the veterans
Great. What would you see as the biggest opportunities as we plan to double electricity grids by 2050? What would be the biggest opportunities for the Canadian economy, for federalism and for Canada as a whole? Can you comment on how this should be positively perceived? What are some of the positive opportunities for Canada?
Still on the theme of energy efficiency, can you or some of your members comment or give some opinions on how our government could further advance energy efficiency? Maybe you can comment on any programs that might be interesting to some of your members.
Great. That's a pretty long list. I'm looking forward to reading it. I love the name of your riding, Sea to Sky. I understand that tourism is really important for your riding. In 45 seconds, can you explain the importance of this bill to tourism in your riding and across British Columbia as well?
It does. Thanks. You also mentioned during your testimony, and again just now, the need to modernize utility regulatory frameworks. Given that this often falls within provincial jurisdiction, what's the role of the federal government vis-à-vis modernizing utility regulatory frameworks?
Thank you. Ms. Sinasac, there's been a lot of technical modelling to show that as our economy electrifies, we need to, at a minimum, double the electricity on our grids by 2050. Some other modelling has shown that we need to potentially triple that capacity or at least increase it by two and a half times. Can you inform this committee what types of energy sources you think should be included in
Oh, are you 34? I'm sorry. I had the wrong year, but happy birthday. I'll move on to more serious matters. To my colleague, Mr. Weiler, have you heard any concerns directly from folks in your riding about abandoned boats landing on the shores or anywhere in your riding? Can you maybe speak a little about what you're hearing from local residents, what you're hearing from first nations
