Thank you for your attendance. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369518\" data-originallang=\"en\">To our guests, I'm sorry we're a little late, but I guess you understand, having been through this process before. We've just had a vote in the House.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369519\" data-originallang=\"en\">I'd like to welcome, from the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, Jean-Claude Bouchard, Scott Streiner, and Peter Sylvester. Thank you for coming. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369520\" data-originallang=\"en\">I'd like to welcome as well, from the Cumulative Environmental Management Association, Judy Smith and John McEachern. Thank you for coming.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369521\" data-originallang=\"en\">I think you're aware of the proceedings we have been following in recent times. This is really just an information session. We'd like you to provide the committee with some background and then respond to questions on it. I think you'll find that there is a great interest in these matters subsequent to our visit to Fort McMurray. If there is any sort of specific direction to your testimony today, it might be in relation to our current study, which is about the oil sands and the federal government's role in the ongoing development of those oil sands.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369522\" data-originallang=\"en\">Without further ado, I'd like to begin by asking you to give a short presentation, perhaps one from each side. I'll leave it to you to decide how you want to divide that time. Then we'll follow with questions.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369523\" data-originallang=\"en\">Have you discussed among yourselves who will begin, or would you like me to choose?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"369517\" data-originallang=\"en\">La s\u00e9ance est ouverte. Bon apr\u00e8s-midi et merci de votre pr\u00e9sence.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369518\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je m'excuse du l\u00e9ger retard aupr\u00e8s de nos invit\u00e9s, mais comme ce n'est pas votre premi\u00e8re comparution, je suis s\u00fbr que vous comprenez. Nous venons tout juste d'avoir un vote \u00e0 la Chambre.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369519\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je souhaite la bienvenue \u00e0 MM. Jean-Claude Bouchard, Scott Streiner et Peter Sylvester de l'Agence canadienne d'\u00e9valuation environnementale. Merci d'\u00eatre venus.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369520\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je souhaite aussi la bienvenue \u00e0 Mme Judy Smith et \u00e0 M. John McEachern, de la Cumulative Environmental Management Association. Merci d'\u00eatre venus.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369521\" data-originallang=\"en\">Vous \u00eates sans doute au courant des travaux qui nous occupent depuis quelque temps. Aujourd'hui, nous aurons une simple s\u00e9ance d'information. Nous vous demandons de fournir au comit\u00e9 des renseignements g\u00e9n\u00e9raux et, ensuite, de r\u00e9pondre \u00e0 des questions. Vous constaterez que le sujet suscite un vif int\u00e9r\u00eat dans la foul\u00e9e de notre visite \u00e0 Fort McMurray. Plus pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment, votre t\u00e9moignage d'aujourd'hui devrait s'inscrire dans le contexte de notre pr\u00e9sente \u00e9tude, qui porte sur les sables bitumineux et sur le r\u00f4le du gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral pour ce qui est d'en assurer le d\u00e9veloppement continu.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369522\" data-originallang=\"en\">Sans plus tarder, je demanderais \u00e0 chaque groupe de faire un bref expos\u00e9. Je vous laisse d\u00e9cider de quelle fa\u00e7on vous voulez r\u00e9partir votre temps de parole. Ensuite, nous passerons aux questions.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"369523\" data-originallang=\"en\">Avez-vous discut\u00e9 entre vous pour savoir qui va commencer, ou voulez-vous que je choisisse?</p>"
