Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would support Mr. Alghabra's recommendation. It isn't as though we were examining a subject that hasn't previously been studied; we're not starting over from scratch.
The Forest Summit in Quebec will be over in three days, and recommendations will emerge that we could review here. We could bring in the witnesses who have been heard at the summit.
I also think a lot of work is currently being done in Ontario and New Brunswick to analyze the forest crisis, which is very great. I would agree with Omar that four meetings would be enough to really look at the entire question and hear from high-quality witnesses.
Mr. Ouellet and I will therefore second the motion to devote four well-chaired meetings on this subject, with good witnesses and good questions.
