One of the concerns expressed by the workers in the tobacco industry is that they produce cigarettes for sale in Canada but they also produce quite a proportion for export. Obviously if they're competing in the U.S. market, which is a market that doesn't have plain packaging yet, they would like to be free to comply with the laws and regulations of whatever country they're shipping into. I didn't see that specifically called out in the legislation, so I wanted a clarification.
