Some pull quotes from pdf below.

- The opportunity to play a role in the solution to climate change is integral to our corporate identity, and it's a key part of the reason that our employees choose to work for us. The focus of our work is primarily on existing buildings in the commercial and institutional sector across western Canada, with a small amount of work elsewhere in Canada and internationally. Our clients include universities, municipalities, health care organizations and commercial property owners. We count the University of Calgary, UBC, the City of Vancouver, Vancouver Coastal Health, and Telus among our active clients. To give you a sense of the impact of some of our projects in existing buildings, I want to briefly highlight a couple of projects that I believe demonstrate that a revolution in energy efficiency in existing buildings is achievable.

- Existing buildings, which, as you know, make up the majority of our building stock, are much more challenging, which is why I said I tend to look at data transparency. It is actually a better regulatory tool than are energy codes.

- In conclusion, I firmly believe that there's a tremendous economic opportunity in further developing Canada's energy efficiency sector not only in terms of the local impact that energy efficiency projects can have in supporting local investment and jobs and in reducing energy costs and emissions but also in the opportunity to export this expertise around the world. Simply put, being leaders in developing practical solutions to climate change is good for business. Thank you. The Chair: Thanks, Mr. White.
