Yes, I guess as a general statement I would say, of this idea of the federal government helping companies and industries that are in trouble, that you can waste a lot of the taxpayers' money trying to do it. You can also make life much more difficult for firms in the same industries that are better managed.
We've had examples. The government of B.C. goes in and rescues a pulp mill and keeps it alive for a couple of years, basically at the expense of other pulp mills.
Whenever you try to do that, usually to a large extent you're just redistributing, helping out companies that are not as well managed as other companies. I don't think it's a very good.... It's hard to be dogmatic about these things, but as a general principle, most of the time you waste the taxpayers' money by doing it.
You should focus on the labour side of it, the side of those workers who are suffering, and make sure that we get them retrained, relocated, and into better jobs. Focus on the workers, not on trying to keep the plant going or the firm going. Focus the assistance on helping the workers make the adjustment and find new, better-paying, more secure employment.
