Okay, let's deal with that. There are two issues here, short term and long term. I think we really do want to separate those.
In particular in the automobile industry and the industry that makes the bits and pieces for housing, we are going through a short-term cycle, which we certainly do expect to recover. That's why we have things like unemployment insurance. That is exactly what we expect to happen. That's cyclical. But there is a structural problem, and I think that's really what you're referring to. That structural problem differs across different industries, but clearly, industries that generally rely on lower skill labour--furniture and textiles being two classics--are ones where we are going to cede employment to lower-cost countries, and those industries will in the future likely have fewer employees than currently, although not necessarily as much as we think, because we still retain capacity in design and the specialized end of that. That's one set.
Secondly, we have industries like the forestry industry, which is one that I think concerns all of us, where in terms of pulp and paper we have enormous competition from the Brazils and Indonesias of the world and we have declining demand for our classic product, newsprint. At the same time, particularly in eastern Canada, we have increasing wood costs. So that industry is one that, over time, is going to have to be a bit smaller than what it currently is. It doesn't mean that it needs to be unproductive but that it's probably going to be smaller than it currently is.
The issue then is--and particularly in those industries, since they tend to be located in northern Manitoba, northern Ontario, northern Quebec, in smaller communities--how do we deal with the fact that there won't be in those communities jobs for all the workers who are displaced? In part, this is dealt with, at least in the short run. Since these people are highly skilled and very useful in industries that are expanding, in part that means temporarily working outside of the community. That's easy in a place like Prince Albert, where you can jump on a plane and in half an hour be in Fort McMurray. It's a little tougher in Fort Frances or in Témiscaming to do that. So that is a real issue. I don't have all the answers of how to do that, but it's on the workers in those communities that we have to concentrate.
Finally, over the long haul, of course, what we have to concentrate on is, through education and training, to ensure that younger workers have the skills and flexibility to be flexible across different industries.
