81. Every owner of a factory using unprocessed wood as raw material and every person carrying on a lumber business in Québec may be required by the Minister or his representative to declare under oath whence they have obtained the timber owned by them or in their possession, and to give all necessary information to prove that such timber is exempt from Crown dues.
