Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you to our witnesses for being here today.
Mr. Arcand, you came before this committee back in June, and you told us that manufacturers in the United States invest more than $55,000 per worker, while in Canada it's roughly $20,000. You also said our manufacturing capital stock has declined by about 13.5% since 2000, while U.S. manufacturing stock has risen by roughly 40%. What's driving that investment gap?
