Mr. Chair, my colleague is always an ally when it comes to the forestry sector. We have seen many initiatives here before, including a bill on the use of wood. Unfortunately, even though this bill was passed, it has no teeth since it is not binding. The government is being advised to use wood as though it has never been advised to use it before. I find that a little odd.
Does my colleague agree that the government should have a measure in place that allows carbon footprints to be considered in its calls for tenders? That way, wood would qualify every time. It would be a binding measure to promote the use of wood and would give the forestry sector a helping hand, at least in the government's tendering process.
