It has been raised this morning, and in fact aspersions have been raised about potential motivations of these witnesses based on the ways their organizations are funded.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9062472\" data-originallang=\"en\">I'd like to invite you to respond to that, in terms of whether or not you feel that's a valid criticism to make of your organizations and your representation today.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9062473\" data-originallang=\"en\">Also, could you speak to where the sources of this misinformation are? Whether it's purposeful or whether it's unintentionally or sloppily inaccurate, where is that information coming from that has led some Canadians to be, for example, under the misimpression that it would be a ban on all gasoline-powered vehicles that would go into effect, rather than a standard for new vehicles to meet a certain rate of EV adoption? That seems to be a critical point that is widely and indeed perhaps actively disseminated.</p>",

La question a \u00e9t\u00e9 soulev\u00e9e ce matin. En fait, des calomnies sont r\u00e9pandues entourant les motivations potentielles des t\u00e9moins en fonction de la fa\u00e7on dont leurs organisations sont financ\u00e9es.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9062472\" data-originallang=\"en\">J\u2019aimerais vous inviter \u00e0 y r\u00e9pondre et \u00e0 nous dire si vous estimez qu\u2019il s\u2019agit d\u2019une critique valable \u00e0 formuler \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9gard de vos organisations et de votre participation aujourd\u2019hui.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9062473\" data-originallang=\"en\">De plus, pourriez-vous nous dire qui r\u00e9pand ces fausses informations? Que ce soit d\u00e9lib\u00e9r\u00e9 ou non, voire grossi\u00e8rement inexact, d\u2019o\u00f9 vient cette information qui a donn\u00e9 \u00e0 certains Canadiens la mauvaise impression, par exemple, qu\u2019une interdiction de tous les v\u00e9hicules \u00e0 essence entrerait en vigueur, plut\u00f4t que d\u2019une norme destin\u00e9e aux nouveaux v\u00e9hicules visant \u00e0 atteindre un certain taux d\u2019adoption des v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques? C\u2019est un point essentiel qui est largement et peut-\u00eatre m\u00eame activement diffus\u00e9.</p>"
