If we could set the clock back, I think we'd start off with our own internal system and restructure how we handle the use of standards within the provinces and territories, so we would have one set and one common agreement. That goes back to how the agreement on internal trade needs to be pulled into the newer system.
At the international level, we need to be involved, but we need to remember it's for our benefit. You could spend a lot of money going out internationally and get nowhere nationally. If we cannot solve the national issues of coordination, collaboration, and harmonization, I think we will be beaten down by the European bloc and the Chinese bloc. To me, that issue is critical and we have to solve that.
We also have to recognize that the Europeans tend to want to take over ISO now. Whereas before we had quite a lot of influence, it's going to decline. Therefore, North America has to get together and have some common form of standards system. We also have to find ways to be very innovative. That's my answer.
