Thank you, Madam Chair.
I thank the witnesses for their statements.
In the first hour of this meeting, we heard witnesses talk about all sorts of medium and long-term solutions. We've heard conversion ideas for the industry and ideas for an industrial policy. In the short term, however, we need to address the difficult situation in which the industry finds itself. Unfairly withholding money will hurt companies, because they'll be deprived of the cash they're entitled to.
Would it be desirable for the government to offer companies a loan guarantee program that would compensate for the sums being withheld in the United States, thereby at least getting them through the crisis?
My question is for both witnesses.
