Thank you, Minister. That's especially reassuring for Ontario's manufacturing sector, which is hearing these same rumours.
The Governor of the Bank of Canada has highlighted the importance of diversifying our markets, which you mentioned, for resources and other products. He noted that emerging economies are growing exponentially faster than are advanced economies. Considering the amount of resources those emerging economies will need, what are the benefits of diversifying our markets, and how important is it to move forward quickly on this?
