One unique characteristic of harvesting the pine beetle.... I think almost everybody in this room is very familiar with the file. You know that you are not getting top-quality lumber from beetle-killed timber. That is why the export market and the Chinese market were so critical in the last eight to 10 years, particularly 2006 to 2009. As many of you know, having access to the Chinese market completely, utterly saved the Canadian industry.
The pine beetle issue is not gone. It has resurrected itself on the east side of the borders. It's going to take a bit of time to get it fixed, but that's going to come only through more controls and more harvesting of that fibre, and then finding the appropriate home for that fibre.
I was in China last week. Ironically, China banned the harvesting of natural forests, which is why they are importing so many logs and so much lumber. They are doing that to protect and enhance their forests. They want to maintain them for the future, for the long term.
To your point about replanting, government initiatives and policies are critical so that when the industry is replanting the trees—including what Mr. Moore was talking about—we replant the appropriate species. It might, in fact, be a different species from what we harvest, depending on what the environmental models show the climate is going to be. The luxury of that, of course, is that those trees are going to take 100 or 200 years to reach their full maturity.
I have a bit of faith left in this industry that it will be able to adapt to that new fibre in 100 or 200 years, so I think the future is still good.
