Mr. Chair, I had a question about the lack of funds in the main estimates. That is why I asked him that question.
Let us move on to forestry and the forestry industry. Last year, the Conservative government spent $13 billion to help the auto industry. It did nothing to help Quebec's forestry industry, which only asked for one thing: loan guarantees to help it find the money for revitalization. However, the minister refused.
Thousands of Quebec forestry workers have now lost their jobs. Why has the cruel and insensitive Conservative government abandoned Quebec forestry workers?
