Thank you, Madam Chair.
I'd like to direct my questions to Ms. Barrett.
Thank you for your opening remarks. I could feel the pain in your opening statement.
It is no secret that the administration south of the border has been less than collaborative. To compound the issue and make it worse, we haven't yet seen a resolution, or even the urgency to come to a resolution, on the tariff dispute on this side of the border, with several deadlines that came and went over a year ago now. I can feel the pain, because I also have tool and die manufacturers in my riding that are particularly concerned about their future, the jobs they're providing their employees and the livelihoods of their families.
More broadly speaking, could you speak about how the businesses or stores you represent feel about this lack of urgency?
