Members, you have heard the motion. Ms. Bell has spoken to her motion.
As chair, I want to point out a couple of things. The first is that the National Energy Board has approved both of these projects already. The process takes years, and they've gone through that process. The ability for the public or this committee, anybody, to have input has been wide open.
We get notices in our MP offices of these things happening all the time, and now we're bringing this to committee. As chair, I'm only mentioning this because I'm concerned about the way it would reflect on this committee if we were to interfere in the National Energy Board approval in this way.
As a second concern, do we know that cabinet hasn't approved this?
