Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to salute my colleague, Mr. Lehoux. I know it is not easy to lose industry players in his community. I just wanted to point out that the members of the subcommittee have already met and Mr. Turnbull has decided on a schedule. I think it would be very difficult to make recommendations in one two-hour meeting. The company is definitely going to close its doors in December and that decision is a major blow to the community. I am going to let Mr. Lehoux make a choice as far as the meeting goes.
We could meet as quickly as possible, but we can't do a report to the House, because it is impossible to decide all the important points in a single meeting. If it comes down to holding more meetings, I would like to point out that we have a schedule to follow and that if the motion is adopted, it will have to be incorporated into the schedule, given that we had already determined what was to be done.
I would like to mention that the plant isn't closing its doors tomorrow morning; it will be in December, and it has been announced publicly. The Quebec government is already included in the process. From what I know, Olymel has not made any official request for the federal government to get involved, in any way.
I know my colleague Mr. Lehoux wants to speak.
