Can you say how it's the case and how it's not the case, and give us some insight into the thinking around it?

What is the thinking behind there ultimately being a public liability?

Can you give us any sense of what the considerations would be that would go into figuring out a reasonable period of time for industry to pay back Canadians?

Mr. Labonté, in one of your answers you referred to the fact that this comes as part of a broader universe of different forms of transport and safety levels of those different forms of transport. That was especially interesting to me because in my riding of Toronto Centre there is very heightened concern about rail safety because of the rail line that passes through this very dense urban riding.
Could you give us a sense of how the safety measures set out here for pipelines compare with the level of safety and regulation for transport by rail? Have you thought about it in the context of that bigger puzzle?

I'd like to follow up on some of the questions that Monsieur Caron and Ms. Charlton were asking specifically about the three-year time limit.
Let's imagine a situation in which the billion-dollar limit has been reached and then, after the three years, new claims arise. How would those claimants be covered?

If I may say, in defence of that line of questioning, surely part of the job of legislation is to imagine various hypothetical situations and to cover them.

But I thought I just understood from the first part of the answer that, if I made a claim after the three years, I would be okay because negligence had already been established, and now I'm understanding that's not the case.

I'll go back to Ms. Charlton's point about volumetrics versus type of goods.
Again, in my riding, on rail safety, my constituents are extremely concerned about certain types of oil being transported by rail, especially in their case the Bakken. Are there any particular types of oil transported in pipelines that you are particularly concerned about? I heard your arguments about volumetrics being the best metric, but is there something which there should be a special level of scrutiny around?

Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to start with Mr. Walker. Thank you very much for being here. I'm a big believer in impact investing in the B corp movement and I'm delighted to have you speak to all of us. If you could pass on my best wishes, and I think those of the committee, to Mr. Emery, who I know can't be here because there's been a death in his community.
I would like you to talk a bit more about B corp legislation. You've said that the B corp movement is doing well in Canada already without that legislation. What difference does legislation make? Why is that something we should care about?
