Mr. Chair, it is all well and good to wait until exports recover, but in the meantime, players are exiting the market. That brings me to my next question.
I've met on occasion with people who work in the wood industry. They maintain that their businesses are not registering any profits, but merely losses, on the R and D side. Money invested in R and D represents a non-refundable credit. They are wondering if maybe this non-refundable credit could be converted into a refundable credit. Even if they are not receiving any benefits, they could carry out R and D activities and derive some benefits.
I'd like to hear you views on this subject.
