You could do my job very well. I really appreciate that. That was well done.
Seriously, the issue we have is up until the pandemic Canada's industrial output did well, like you mentioned, because the U.S. could basically take everything we could make. They were on fire, and so we tended to substitute labour for capital and we tended to run our plants as hard as we could. What the pandemic, and the period of the pandemic, has caused us all to look at is, am I going to be competitive once we emerge? Am I going to be able to compete on price? Quality is not usually a problem for Canadian companies. It's, can I compete on price and what are the impacts of all of these various taxes, whether it's local taxes or property taxes?
Yes, we've said to the government we need to have a plan. We don't have an industrial plan right now, sir. Now that we have free trade agreements with so many countries, how are we going to compete with these countries that spend an awful lot more? States like Michigan spend an awful lot more on incentives than the whole of Canada, for example. How do we do that? How do we get that capital here so that rather than having the discussion, as you've mentioned, of do I expand my production here or do I move it to the U.S., we make it more obvious or make it easier for them to say, let's locate in Canada?
Is it a worry? It's a worry about supply chains. I'm really concerned about the future of the industrial sector.
