My question is addressed to Mr. Chevrette.
Mr. Chevrette, thank you for your testimony. There is no doubt the industry is very well served by someone like you. You describe the situation facing the Quebec industry clearly and succinctly for the benefit of people who know less about what is going on than you do. I understood you to say that you will be preparing a report. We will study it carefully. There is no doubt that there were several possible courses of action and the government had to follow one it felt it was appropriate.
I want to be sure I understand your testimony. Although you may want to comment on certain aspects of the negotiations, it is important to emphasize that some demands made by the Quebec industry were met. I'm thinking here of the termination clause and other points, such as the standstill provision.
But I just want to be sure I understand. Does the Quebec industry see this agreement as a shot in the arm? You said that there were many different reasons why people voted to accept it, and that it wasn't just a matter of money. Some demands were met.
