Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'll be asking my questions in French.
First, Mr. Young, thank you for your presentation and the way you approach it. I don't know which riding you're from, but maybe you should consider running for politics in the next election. Good job.
Obviously, forests are under provincial jurisdiction. British Columbia, Alberta and Atlantic Canada are dealing with problems, and soon, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan will be as well. In a way, it can be said that the methods used by the government and the private sector in the past haven't worked so well.
Mr. Young, I'd like you to answer from your personal standpoint and not that of your association.
What could the provinces do better on this front? What tangible measures could the federal government take to make a real difference in the coming decades?
