I saw a newspaper article in which, before Mr. Harper left for Europe to get the discussions started, an anonymous government source told the reporter not to worry about supply management. I think that message is for those of you who are in areas governed by supply management. The source said that the tone of the discussions would not be like that, that it would be protected. When an anonymous source tells me not to worry before anything happens, I hear alarm bells. That is precisely when I do worry. I see that you are confirming my fears in a way. We see it in the “Joint Report on the EU-Canada Scoping Exercise”, as it is called, dated March 5, 2009. So we are dealing with very preliminary discussions between Canada and the European Union.
Are you familiar with the document, Mr. Doyle?
