I want to thank all of the guests for coming today. I also want to apologize for my voice; I've caught one of these great Ottawa colds that go around here in this warm weather. I am from northern Ontario.
Speaking of northern Ontario, my riding of Sudbury is known as the mining capital of Canada, if not the world. We too have been hit by this forestry crisis in the sense that we've lost almost 900 jobs over the last few years in Sudbury and area with the shutdown of the Nairn Centre mill and a few other places.
My colleague on the other side mentioned something about $80 million in R and D and $50 million for another program. We've heard a lot of talk right now about the auto sector and about the crisis that sector is in as well. They're talking about $4 billion. We've heard about $130 million. If we add a little more to that, let's say there are a few more programs out there, that's not even 1% yet of what's going to the auto sector.
Maybe I'll ask this of Mr. Chevrette. What percentage do you think would be fair, if you can come up with that, for the forestry sector?
