In the climate of globalization and wider and wider commercial relationships, some sectors in Quebec and in Canada are being undermined by competition from Asia, as you well know. The job losses in these areas are enormous. They have to change course and improve their technology and their production. I am one who believes that manufacturing still has a place in Quebec and in Canada.
I would like to know what your business relationships and work relationships are with local organizations out in the regions. Do you have targeted, strategic approaches to support and develop sectors that are being weakened by global influences?
