Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question.
The fact is, the softwood lumber agreement expired under the previous government. As the Prime Minister has said, we look forward to working very closely with the new American administration. That being said, in the meantime, we are working with the current American administration to negotiate a softwood lumber deal. We will also make a significant contribution to those negotiations with producers, workers, the provinces, and the territories.
We have an excellent case to make, and we will continue working hard to reach a softwood lumber deal.
