Awesome.

Thank you, Minister, for being here with us today. I want to take this opportunity to thank the whole department for the hard work they're doing.

I know that you've been working hard through our trade agreements and working hard to support the forestry sector because it's an extremely important sector here in Canada. As you mentioned, it's $23 billion of our GDP.

Minister, how are we helping the forestry sector tap into the 1.5 billion customers globally through our trade agreements? Can you answer quickly and provide some insight on that?
