Of course. They would involve the monitoring of dumping. The Mexicans are reticent when it comes to that, and we understand them, as it is not in their interest. The authorities must monitor any aluminum dumping and the entry of illegitimate aluminum—that which is not produced in North America. Traceability is required for that. That is what the aluminum industry representatives have asked for in their seven or eight points. They emphasized that. Along with the Americans and the Mexicans, we must monitor dumping and aluminum origin very closely.
On the other hand, as they said, and as the Conservatives and Bloc Québécois members are saying, the amazing value of our aluminum is its low carbon content. Our wood also has a low carbon content. We have to put forward more and more indirect measures in what I could refer to as our “Buy Canada Act”. I don't know what else to call it, but we need something that would enable the government, in its calls for tenders, as was saying the president of the Aluminum Association of Canada, to take into account the low carbon content of our aluminum and to promote that. We are currently selling our aluminum at the same price as the aluminum whose production, for each tonne, generates 18 tonnes of greenhouse gas. That's because there is no value attributed to that advantage of our aluminum. Therefore, measures must be implemented.
However, we do have brains. Let's think of the Department of Industry representatives. We are capable of developing quality measures that benefit not only Quebec and Canada, but the entire world. This industry produces less greenhouse gas emissions than any other. That is what everyone wants. We cannot let in aluminum whose production has generated, for each tonne, 18 tonnes of greenhouse gas. We will destroy the huge efforts people everywhere are making. It is costly for us to reduce our carbon footprint.
It is hard for me to believe that we will let our industry perish like this. I know that none of you want that, but we must absolutely all work together to find solutions, so that the industry can continue to produce this aluminum at a fair cost. What we are asking for is fairness. So there are direct measures to be taken.
