The main obstacle is certainly the tariff grid which applies to products entering Europe.
Mr. Dupuis can correct me if I am mistaken, but on average, about 14% of Canada's exports go to Europe. That in itself is an obstacle. For certain products, that figure stands at 25%, 26% or 28%; for others, it's a bit less. The average stands at around 14% or 15%, which makes it extremely difficult for our manufacturers to gain access to that market. It makes them uncompetitive, and on top of that you have to take into account the exchange rate.
In our view, these tariffs have to come down. Some of our Quebec members have huge expectations. They are enthusiastic about the agreement which was announced. For the first time, they will be able to access these markets, gain a few market share points and develop the European market for their products.
