Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Asselin and Ms. Furlong.
Mr. Asselin, I listened to your presentation, and it reminded me of many discussions I have had about the national immunization strategy and the forestry industry. Everyone has talked to me about the need to foster collaboration among the players. In fact, I had that discussion with Rémi Quirion.
In Quebec, there is a rather interesting model related to value-added corporations, especially in the forestry industry. I don't know if you are familiar with them. I'm thinking of FPInnovations and CRIBIQ, the Consortium for Research and Innovation in Industrial Bioprocesses in Quebec, which actually work quite well. I'm also thinking of college centres for technology transfer, CCTTs, which are having some success in Quebec.
I don't know if the federal government has done anything comparable to what has been done with the small value-added corporations. To your knowledge, what is happening in that area?
