Already, of course, we're in the “hurry up and wait” mode. There are a couple of different court actions, one at the WTO. Mexico and Canada have a number of times taken the U.S. to the WTO, on several fronts now. We're in the process of analyzing the amendment they put forward. Actually their own economist at the USDA has said that the country-of-origin labelling does not show any quantifiable benefit to anybody, so that's good news for us. We make sure that the tribunal in Geneva is getting those little gems.
At the end of the day, I had good discussions with Secretary Tom Vilsack. I know my counterpart, Enrique Martinez, had the same discussions as to how hurtful it is. We have put out our list of retaliatory measures. The Mexicans don't have a gazetting process that allows them to do that. The last major dispute they had was in 2008. They had a very comprehensive list they retaliated on, and that did turn the tide at the end of the day. They've been a little more forthcoming in saying that the list they would put out would be something similar to that, so that's good news for us.
Getting that list out did help us. People started to sign on to the other court case in which American industry—from the ranchers right through to the retail sector—as well as Mexican and Canadian industry took the administration in the United States to court. One judge ruled that it was not on. They appealed it, and they had over 100 senators and congressmen, who had never taken part in that before, sign onto that appeal. Part of that help was our retaliatory list. There was a congressman from California who was quite concerned about California wine. Another congressman from Kentucky, who sits on the appropriations committee for the farm bill, was very concerned about Kentucky bourbon being attached. So it got their attention and showed them how serious we are. We have every intention of retaliating should and when it be required. We're hopeful that the Americans will finally read the tea leaves and stop riding country-of-origin labelling and move back to free and unfettered trade.
