Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I find it rather interesting to see Mr. Trahan and Mr. Weir seated side by side. Both the employer and union sides sending the same message regarding the manufacturing sector.
Mr. Trahan, you explained very well some of the shortcomings in the current budget, but with respect to the manufacturing industry in Quebec—and I assume the same could apply to Ontario—what are we going to come up against in one year if the federal government does not apply concrete measures now, as has been recommended in the unanimous report of the industry committee, and in the submission you made today? In terms of employment, markets, what are the manufacturers going to be facing?
