Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague. I know that she has worked with us in the past, in a former life. We never spoke much, but I appreciate her, and I would invite her, if she fancies some 100% pure maple syrup, to come to Mirabel. I would be delighted to give her some. Ours is 100% pure.
Following that little joke, which comes from the heart, I can tell her that it is true that there are measures in place for workforce training for forestry workers. Of course, we are criticizing how it is being done, because we genuinely believe that the expertise lies in Quebec City and that there are ways to make things move faster for the companies. There is an imbalance in federalism when it comes to workforce training, and I believe that this money should go to Quebec City, which is capable of managing it.
Now, in the forestry sector, there is always the issue of funding and access to liquidity. By implementing what the Bloc Québécois is proposing, the average tariffs on Quebec lumber would drop from about 48% to 27%, which would give the forestry sector some breathing room. It is all well and good to meet them halfway, but if a runner stops at the 21-kilometre mark, they are not going to finish the marathon.
