Thank you, Mr. Chair.
When we asked Ms. Wright about competition, she mentioned that having many carriers attempting to occupy a small market can be a problem because there may not necessarily be a volume large enough to support many carriers.
You just told us more or less the same thing, Mr. Paradis.
I know that, at one point, you worked on the Régionair project and tried to find a solution to that problem. The project may have been somewhat similar or even akin to the one that had been developed by the Union des municipalités du Québec, the UMQ. The aim was to allow the regions to have management boards under which services would be provided by tender. The objective was to offer the possibility of a free market, but, at the same time, to favour the most competitive carrier. A kind of service exclusivity was also proposed. If I'm not mistaken, that's a solution that you and the UMQ prefer.
Where does that project stand? What obstacles lie in the way of that kind of solution, if that's what local actors want?
