Mr. Speaker, I work with my colleague who sits on the committee. Clearly, these demands will not be ignored. Of course, this also concerns the regions, as was mentioned a little earlier. The aerospace industry is not just in Montreal. It is also present in many places, in many areas. Small suppliers and small businesses are found all over. A member said earlier that it is a constellation, a cluster. I want to emphasize that point because I believe that people are not fully aware of it. Quebec is one of the three places in the world where a plane can be fully assembled. Think about it. This means that all the parts can be manufactured and assembled in Quebec. This area is sustained by this important industry. The luxury tax is a threat to at least 2,000 jobs, and some of them are definitely in the regions.
