But there are still some questions that have been asked since I spoke a few minutes ago.
On the question of the tabling motion, as Mr. Allison said, we shouldn't waste time. If the members of this committee care about the situation in the manufacturing and forestry sectors, we have to move ahead faster. To do that, we simply have to introduce this motion, vote on it and send it to Parliament, where the discussion of this subject will be held. That way we will not be wasting time here, in committee, and we can keep on working. The debate will be held with all members of Parliament. We will see at that time who is most sensitive to the situation of these industries.
Earlier, Mr. Cannan spoke about the Canadian International Trade Tribunal. When those people make a decision, they have to strike a balance between the interests of industry and of consumers. That is why we believe that we should systematically accept the recommendations and decisions of the tribunal. I don't think that anyone can disagree with that.
If I refer to what Mr. Pallister said, this is a good motion. We are starting a new year, so let's make a good resolution and pass this motion, and send it to the House so that all members of Parliament can be involved in a debate on this subject. We cannot rely on other committees to deal with this issue if we do not know the nature of the work they are going to do on it. Let us take responsibility and demonstrate that we are sensitive to the forestry and manufacturing sectors.
