Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
My question is for Messrs. Gagné, Chevrette and Roy.
On Tuesday, my party and I introduced a motion in the House of Commons, which was supported by 152 members to 140. In that motion, we proposed to assist the forest industry by means of tax credits, loan guarantees and a policy to promote the use of wood when the government builds or renovates the buildings it owns.
I would like to hear what you have to say on that motion, briefly since you will all be speaking during the time allotted to me. Do you consider that motion realistic and does it meet the needs of the forest sector?
We'll start with Mr. Gagné.
