Thank you, Madam Chair.
We have a government that's been unable to make deals with Mr. Trump like other countries have. When they're unable to do so, the Liberals tell us that it's no big deal, because on average, the tariffs in Canada are much lower than those of our trading partners. The next day, however, they tell us that it's urgent that we diversify our trading partners, because our trade with the United States represents a significant portion of our GDP and we're extremely vulnerable. We don't know which of those two arguments stands anymore.
For example, on page 31 of the report, you tell us that the average tariff is 5.9%. It seems to me that this is a poor measure of our vulnerability. In terms of the tariffs, the sectors affected and our volume of trade with the United States, compared to our major trading partners, are we more or less affected by this crisis in the current context?
