I think you're touching on how important it is that we use Canadian wood for all infrastructure.
The forest sector action plan requires federal partnerships in key areas, as you know, to implement the strategy. We've heard from stakeholders that we need to scale up regional forest manufacturing hubs and integrated value chains; to accelerate investment in modernization, innovation and value-added production; to reduce, obviously, regulatory friction and align policy frameworks with provinces; and to support workforce transition and community resilience. I'm thinking about the workers in Crofton and the need for a bridge to retirement.
I'll go back to you, Mr. Kalesnikoff, given that you're from my home province.
Do you want to touch on some of those issues?
You have about a minute left. I want to give you my time.
