Mr. Chair, I thank the member for his question. Yes, all that is interconnected.
The forestry sector is an ecosystem. I think the hon. member for Jonquière described it as a chain. I completely agree, and it falls apart if any part gets weak. When we talk about supports for the forestry sector, one of the things I discussed in my remarks was that we need to talk about the communities around it as well. We need to make sure that the overall ecosystem is supported.
When we talk about a sawmill's economic viability, there is the dimensional lumber that comes out the other side, but there are also the residuals that need to find a market in pulp. On the flip side, if someone has a pulp mill and the sawmill goes down, they are not going to have economic access to residuals, so we need to talk about keeping entire clusters up, and we need to be supporting the industry as a whole, not as individual pieces.
I think that is an absolutely spot-on point.
