Thank you, Chair.
Thank you all for being here today. As usual, I wish we had all day to talk to you.
Ms. Daviet, you talked about using the forest sector and the forest trade to maximize our climate action abilities and you also talked about the importance of biodiversity. There's a tension there, obviously. One of the reductions of impacts you mentioned was lengthening rotations. We had Dr. Kurz here in our last meeting. He mentioned that in the coastal British Columbia forests, the maximum carbon sequestration happening in those forests goes on until the trees are 150 years old or more, which is twice as long as the average rotation.
I'm wondering if you could talk about that tension. Let's put it this way: You also talked about non-timber values, and one of those might be carbon credits. We were talking about going to net zero by 2050. A lot of sectors were going to have trouble getting to net zero without some sort of carbon credits, I imagine. Maybe you could talk about the idea of using carbon credits to help fund the forest sector, and putting off those rotations to maximize our climate actions.
I hope that's clear enough.
