I think it's absolutely critical that whenever we are looking at documents more broadly—my honourable colleague from the Bloc is a business person, which you can tell—we look toward the long term and the long-term implications of what happens when we request the distribution of documents more broadly. It could have long-term implications not only for this government, but for future governments.
Way too often, politicians get accused of short-termism. I think this is a perfect opportunity to look to the long term and what could happen to future governments if we do not protect this incredibly sensitive economic information. It's an opportunity to ensure that future governments are able to enter into agreements without having critical information disclosed that could harm any future company more broadly, because we simply need to attract that foreign direct investment.
It's just a warning about this. I know it's weird, because I'm a new MP and I've been here for a hot second, but I think this is something we just have to continue to focus on.
Thank you.
