Thank you. I didn't want to go to the trouble of calling John on his comment about the opposition parties being opposed to the seal hunt. Suffice it to say that the official opposition is not opposed to the seal hunt, and I think that's pretty clear.
He did raise a good question—I'll give him that—with respect to the seal hunt. It's an issue in these negotiations, because there are member states that are raising it and want to see something done about it.
There's a lot of pressure internally, and there's also a lot of pressure on the environmental issue as it relates to the tar sands. There is quite a bit of pressure within some member states and various bodies there. They're raising this issue and they're concerned about how this is going to be dealt with, so I'd like to ask you to talk to me further about how you're going to deal with the seal hunt issue and the tar sands.
On the Lisbon Treaty issue, complicated it may be, but I'll give the European community and the people within it credit for their thirst for democracy, as they are trying to make sure that the people's representatives actually have a role in some of the important decisions that are made around issues such as international trade.
