Yes, of course, Mr. Chair.
Actually, I would add that it in Canada’s interest to have a national system of standards that is quite prominent on the world stage and would also be harmonized inside the country.
There has been some recent action on the matter I raised previously from the Standards Council of Canada. Prior to establishing a standard, actually, you absolutely have to see what is being done internationally in order to really get in line with international requirements, given that we were just talking about external trade. At the same time, before developing international standards, we must use our status as Canadians to have some influence on their content in order to properly position our companies, industries and organizations.
That is what I wanted to mention about this. We must be in a position to exert our influence on the world stage and so we must be harmonized and coherent in Canada.
