First of all, COVID-19 brought insecurity and the unknown. It is as if the floor beneath our feet became very unstable last March 11. We had no idea of the form everything would take in the days that followed, until the middle of April.

That was a good thing, because the market for wood construction products, both residential and nonresidential, was extremely solid. We have packaging, paper towels, and all the sanitary products made from wood fibre. Those products complement our activities. In my opinion, the response was the right one.
