Thank you, Mr. Kingston.
Through you, Madam Chair, I'll go back to Mr. Kingston.
I'm sorry to put you on the spot, sir. I'm going to also talk about something that nobody has spoken about yet. The question will first be for you, and then for the representative from Unifor, please.
I'm very concerned about chip shortages. I know there have been major investments downriver. For those who don't know, “downriver” is on the other side of the Detroit River, down in the big assembly plants in Michigan.
I do believe it to be true, Mr. Kingston, and please correct me if my numbers are way [Technical difficulty—Editor] million-unit shortage last year or that wasn't assembled last year due to the chip shortage. Can you advise this committee as to how both sides of the border can work together or what Canada needs to do to ensure that? The reason I'm asking this question, Mr. Kingston, is that obviously we want to produce and we want to assemble, but right in Windsor, right in my backyard, we've had major, major assembly plant shutdowns. The lines have been shut down. We're cut down to one. I'm just curious to know if you could respond to that, please.
