My question, though, is what you think happens in those meetings when this comes up as an irritant. You don't contest what Member Dingell said, so why did it take so long for you to get to this?
In fact, Mr. Chair, I would say this would never happen at the industry committee. Deputy ministers would not show up for such an issue. That says something in and of itself. That's not your fault. I understand that. This ongoing relationship we have here is from a treaty that is not being respected. This is a treaty. That's a big difference.
Would you not agree that a treaty is different from other types of working relationships we have with the United States?
