Thank you.
We are talking a great deal about agriculture, but in my region, Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean, we are surrounded by forests. The forest is a large garden that grows; it's alive. We harvest it and we work it; it's like a living garden. Trees are major carbon sinks.
We are talking about forest residue and biomass. Does the department have investment programs to help businesses grow? We could do a lot of things with the forest residues.
To your knowledge, are programs going to be put in place eventually? Are there already measures in place to encourage the cultivation of our forests and open up new markets for forest residues?
