Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for his question. Forestry industry representatives have requested certain things from the government. One of their major requests came at budget time. They asked to have access to reasonable credit and wanted to ensure that the price of electricity would not cost them their businesses. In the meantime, they have also asked for money for training. However, certain restrictions apply to that money. The government will not say anything about this. The forestry industry is struggling from one community to the next, and the government refuses to acknowledge this.
I met with representatives from a business in Espanola a few weeks ago. They have already changed everything they can within their business. They said what they really need is help from the Conservative government, which continues to deny that the industry is currently going through a major crisis.
