Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to thank the witnesses for their presentations.
I will start with Mr. Lessard. Mr. Labbé can answer afterwards, if he wishes.
Mr. Lessard, you spoke about the Softwood Lumber Agreement. Actually, I will sort of go back to what Mr. Rafferty said earlier.
With something like the Softwood Lumber Agreement, there has to be an agreement between the two parties. The agreement is about to expire, but we don't really know what the Americans would like to see in a potential new agreement.
You said that it wasn't an ideal agreement, but that it was better than no agreement at all. We want the agreement to be acceptable, but if the Americans want a more restrictive agreement, how far can we go?
