Mr. Miville, in your opening remarks, you said that forest owners are collateral victims. Countervailing duties apply to you too, because it's thought that governments subsidize wood harvesting in public forests. You have to pay those duties, then, even though you own private forests. I imagine that's a difficult situation for many of your members.
I believe I've already spoken with people from your association about the tax arrangements that the government could put in place. Private producers harvest wood maybe once every 25 years. They then end up with a huge income that they can't tax over time. I'd like to hear you talk about what the government could do in that regard.
