To some extent, this is a bit like Hamlet without the prince. Maybe we should have the just transition commissioner before the committee before making a decision. We should not jump the gun. We had a good discussion and we heard both sides. I would like to hear from Kieran Mulvey to find out where he is at because we do not want to hamstring him either. Mr. Mulvey will be charged with making all of this happen. With no disrespect to Deputy Smith, I propose that we have the just transition commissioner before the committee, have a dialogue with him and then decide how to arm him with whatever it is he needs.
