Very briefly, Madam Chair, in response to the member's question, let me say that the other risk in the absence of this new legislation is of Canada's becoming a dumping ground for unsafe products. The U.S. and the EU have what is the equivalent of a general prohibition, which says that industry must sell safe products. In Canada, with the HPA, which is reactive, they could then say “If we can't sell this in our current country, we can try to put it into another country where they have a lesser regime”, and that would then force us to react.
With the new legislation that's before you, we would be more harmonized. All products, domestically and internationally, would be treated the same. The risk right now is that we have a lesser standard.
