Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Hello to all the witnesses. I thank them for their attendance and their testimony.
Mr. Trew, I listened carefully to what you had to tell us. I also read your text, which is very interesting. I really like it when ideas come from beaten paths. I also appreciate your suggestions to increase environmental partnerships. You actually did a good job of describing this kind of a cycle where there is an outcry over protectionism, but it ends up being pointless, except perhaps to hide behind complaints and words of umbrage.
You are putting forward certain ideas, but I would like to know more concretely what actions could be taken. For example, you talk about something equivalent to the Buy America provisions and to the Buy American Act that could be applied in Canada in order to come to an agreement with the United States that could be referred to as Buy North American. Could you tell us more about that?
