In the early versions of this bill that were basically just to ask the minister to consider the use of wood, there was no mention of the other products so there were concerns around picking winners and losers and even some perhaps trade implications that, as Canada is a wood-producing nation, we would be favouring ourselves in these things.
It was specifically amended to highlight the greenhouse gases, the greenhouse carbon footprint aspect of these materials. It says the use of wood or any other material that may achieve these benefits. That goes to when I talk to the people in the cement industry and they say that cement is such a long-lasting product and they have new ways of incorporating carbon into it, so that they would be able to compete. I said great.
