Yes, but for companies, spruce is one of the best things for pulp, so they don't utilize it.
They started actually taking a percentage of hardwood. They used to use chemicals to whiten the pulp. They actually found that if they used part of the hardwood in with that mixture...but it didn't cover the amount of hardwood that's sitting around in the bush. When you get a couple of veneer plants where, as I said, one burns down and one closes down, that's the biggest problem in northern Ontario.
Yes, it grows fast and it grows quickly, but unfortunately no one is utilizing it. That's where the pellet plants come in. If you don't mind, I'll go back quickly to a comment earlier. There's a company in Maine that is actually experimenting, and doing quite profitably, converting 200 houses to heating with wood pellets. They took two old fuel trucks and converted them into pellet trucks. Twice a year they go around to homes and deliver it. You have to realize that not all communities have access to natural gas. What are they burning? They're burning home heating fuel. Pellets are 50% of the cost.
There is a program that's out there. I talked to the individual who's basically been dealing with it, and it's going pretty well. We should start something like that in Canada.
