Thanks, Mr. Chair. Thanks for being here today.
Earlier one of the other members asked a question about where the MPCs that are currently coming into Canada are originating from, what the volume was, and whether there has been a significant change in the volume in the last year or so.
I think the answer was that's difficult to determine, both where they come from and the volumes. If that's true, if you don't have access to that information, do these other countries declare themselves in terms of where the MPCs are coming from? When they declare themselves, do they tell you how much they're sending into Canada, and since you are unable to confirm that, do you take their word for it?
It would seem to me there's some basic information--which countries the MPCs are coming from, how much from each, and how that has changed. If you don't have that information now, how are you going to have that information before you get into these negotiations?
