Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Alexander, you raised the point here that the Japanese, you say, gave us a lot of credit for the fact that we had green types of lumber. Let me say that I don't think they're paying one cent more per million board feet because we're green. If you have different information that we're being paid more, or that we're doing more business because we're green, could you please send that me? To date, I haven't seen that.
I've also noticed that since 2008, the industry has been stagnant; that is, there is no more money being earned in the industry. Therefore, all the extra money we seem to be spending in trade agreements and everything else associated with the industry we're getting less and less return for.
Perhaps you could comment on that, please.
