Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I thank the minister and the department officials for being with us today. We are very grateful to them.

Madam Minister, you seem in fine form and we are happy to see you.

Earlier, you talked about compensation and you mentioned, among other things, $292 million for the impacts of the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, or CETA, and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, or CPTPP.

Is this the full compensation, or are there other amounts to compensate processors with respect to these agreements?
