Let me think about how to come back on that.
The cornerstone of Canada's trade policy for over a generation has been the global rule setting at the WTO. That is because, as a medium economy highly dependent on trade, what we are looking for is a level playing field in advanced countries like those in Europe, or the United States, and in high-growth developing countries where we would like to enhance our economic ties.
Unfortunately, things are not moving very well at the WTO. That has caused countries to go out and seek bilateral arrangements, and now, with the TPP and a few other regional agreements, regional initiatives, because as I was saying earlier, the WTO has become somewhat dated. It's not dealing with the realities of the current marketplace and what businesses need from their governments in trying to set a level playing field for them.
To answer your question as to why we're doing it with these countries, it's because these countries are doing it. They're doing it together. Right? There are many countries there that are extremely important to us and very important to our economy. In addition, it's a mechanism that is designed to grow in the region to include other countries that are very important to us.
