Mr. Speaker, yes, indeed, the industry has indicated that to me, and my colleague has alluded to the four or five measures that the Canadian shipbuilding association, the marine workers union and the CAW want. I want to go on record again as saying, yes, that certainly would level the playing field.
I cannot emphasize enough that no one in the shipbuilding industry, whether it be the people who own, manage and operate the yards, or the unions, is asking for direct subsidies from the government. They are not asking for subsidies.
