Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd also like to thank all the witnesses for joining our committee today and for the incredible amount of information we've heard, as my colleague Mr. McLean noted.
I'd like to ask my first question of Professor Lewis. You mentioned in your testimony that there are challenges of disconnection between agencies supporting the forestry sector and the need to invest in diverse products.
I'm wondering how you see this coordination between agencies best being done. Do you think the recent announcement of a new regional development agency for B.C., as a more contextually specific organization for B.C., could lead such an effort?
