I can't speak for Quebec as to what they would do, but salvaging dead and dying trees is certainly an option to any jurisdiction during an outbreak. To pick up on what my colleagues from the province were saying, they are very interested in this early intervention strategy. They've told us that. In theory, it could be applied to the western front, if it's spreading west in a similar situation to what is happening in northern New Brunswick, just starting into the area. They could apply that. It's up to the province, basically, to use that.
