Thank you for the question. I will be happy to follow up with a written submission.
Thank you.

For me, I think it would be the affordability, the cost, because a lot of the businesses we're talking about are still at that level where some of them are still struggling, and they will think twice about sorting out their businesses and so on, internally, before going international. It's not that they're not at the stage where they can actually expand internationally; it's just that their priorities are different, depending on the timing.

We've completed three rounds. Does anyone have one question that's just burning to be answered? We will be receiving information in writing from pretty much all of our witnesses today.
If everyone's okay with it, I will thank the witnesses so much. This has been such an interesting study, and I think we are all learning a tremendous amount from all of our great witnesses. Thank you all for taking the time to be with us today and for your information. We look forward to your written reports.
Okay, thank you. On Thursday, we're dealing with softwood lumber, and on December 2, we're dealing with softwood lumber and emissions. We'll do one hour on each one.
The meeting is adjourned.
