Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Thank you for joining us this morning.
I would also like to thank my colleague from Richmond—Arthabaskafor introducing the motion inviting you to present this issue to the committee.
I would also like to thank the committee members for agreeing to see you.
Your presentation gave an overview of two issues. Firstly, there are unpaid accounts, and there is no money to pay the market. Secondly, there is the issue of what will happen to these fields.
I heard all these feelings of hopelessness. I even heard that a psychologist was called in to meet with the producers.
I would like for Mr. Gemme and Mr. St-Aubin to speak to me about what is going on in people’s minds, because I am scared that they may commit a serious act that cannot be undone. Tell me about how these people feel, their state of mind.
