We've done studies on trade deals before. We did CETA. I'm not opposed to doing a study on the TPP, but I know that on Wednesday we're going to do a day, two hours, on grain transport and the Emerson report. I really think that's an important issue, and I know you met with some people today. I meet with them quite often. Bev and I were on the committee when we were dealing with the grain transportation crisis and we did study the bill at committee.
There are a lot of provisions that need to be looked at and maybe not be sunsetted. They are going to be up, I think, in August or July. I think this is a huge, huge issue, and it's a complicated issue. You need to know interswitching. There are a lot of groups that are on the same page, but I think we need to take care of the grain transport more than we need to delve into the TPP. I've nothing against the TPP, but we have to move on grain transport. If we don't do it in the next two weeks, we won't be able to have it, and then we're going to miss the boat and these things are just going to fall into water.
From what I understand, if we do a study and we have witnesses come, and I know a lot of different groups are writing to the ministers responsible, the ministers are going to hopefully maybe make a decision and that can be done through an order in council, but I really would press the importance of dealing with grain transport and the Emerson report here at the agriculture committee before we do the TPP.
