Mr. Trahan, while talking about the manufacturing crisis in Quebec, you stated that the companies which are succeeding are those which invested in research and development, upgraded their equipment, or invested in training. I don't know if you have any specific statistics on that, but those are the companies that are faring the best.
For a long time, the Bloc Québécois has been demanding guaranteed loans for companies. Had there been more loan guarantees over the last five or six years, more Quebec companies would probably be doing better today, and they would be in a better position to compete.
Do you think that's a fair statement?
