Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Kalesnikoff and Mr. Verreault, I will take this opportunity to address you in French. I'd like to thank you and all the members of your committee for the work you have done for Canada and the Canadian forestry industry. We're very grateful to you. The report you produced contains a lot of good material. That said, it raises a few questions that I'd like some clarification about, on behalf of Canadians.
If I may, I'm going to start with a theme that comes up often in the report, which is that access to fibre is the main challenge. Is that an issue in all provinces, or are some provinces disproportionately affected by the issue? What is blocking fibre access in Canada?
