I believe Minister LeBlanc, the minister responsible for Canada-U.S. trade, will be meeting shortly with his counterpart, Jamieson Greer, the United States ambassador for trade. It is the work of Minister LeBlanc, as well as our chief negotiator Janice Charette, to ensure that this dialogue is continuing with the United States.
I also want to underline that the CUSMA trade agreement in place has 85% of Canada-U.S. trade continuing to operate and pass through the 49th parallel tariff-free. The work they will do is to continue that co-operation while advocating for those suffering in the sectoral tariff domain, particularly with respect to steel, aluminum, lumber and auto.
As I said, this work is ongoing, and it's extremely important.
