I'm sorry. Could the inverse be true, though? If you have a process and Canada has a standard--and I'll use the word “brand”--that says we actually don't take this, as was mentioned, as a voluntary process, we're serious about it and we put resources.... And the contextual piece I want to put into play here is that we are actually involved, in industry and government, in bringing forward serious CSR practices and support capacity development. I actually think that's great.
So I'm concerned because I'm hearing you say this is a 300-pound gorilla, on the one hand, and on the other hand I don't see evidence based on the context. It's not just one bill here and that's it. We are doing many other things, and I want to see my country being welcomed because of our practices...and by no means anyone being affected dishonourably with any process that is put forward.
I don't see your argument in this bill because of the provisions that are provided. As you've read the bill, there is a whole component part about vexatious complaints, and if anything, I hope this would be something that would protect you and shine up your reputation, because there are accusations. Some we have heard today and there are others that you hear on a more regular basis.
At the end of the day, I hope you would see this as not some Trojan horse and not another agenda. The agenda is simple, and it's that Canadian companies, when they are abroad, apply the same standards as here in Canada. I think that is what was understood by the round table. At least from this member, that's the intention, and that's what we're trying to do here. It is not some way of trying to assert another--
