Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to thank the witnesses for being with us today. Sometimes we don't know a lot about certain subjects. That's why we invite them to come and answer our questions to clarify what we're studying.
I want to talk about modular construction and the use of solid wood, which we heard about from another witness.
My colleague said innovation is in the air right now, that we're seeing it emerge in various sectors, but that's nothing new. I'm thinking of the ads in Quebec with those well-known concrete blocks used for foundations.
In your opinion, what's your market share in the vast construction sector, both in the residential sector and in collective housing?
What are the roadblocks? You talked about municipalities. Other than that, what other roadblocks have you encountered when it comes to innovation or labour?
These questions are for Mr. Searles and Mr. Royer, but I'd like to hear what Mr. Royer has to say first.
