Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll ask my questions quickly because I have two and a half minutes.
I spoke to the minister earlier about the fact that some forestry companies were having trouble receiving funding from CED. When these companies engage in primary wood processing, they're told that they can't receive funding from CED because of the trade agreements. The companies are referred to Global Affairs Canada. However, the companies have told me that it's almost impossible to receive funding.
Can you explain this to me?
