Thank you for the question, Mr. Ste‑Marie.
We are in regular contact with our colleagues at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. They recognize that the tariffs are counterproductive for the U.S economy, so they are also very concerned about this.
We are pleased to see that the Premier of Quebec is in Washington today and she should be meeting with them soon, if she has not already. That is very good news and shows solidarity on both sides of the border.
Beyond that, will they want to reinitiate legal proceedings? We will leave that up to them. However, it is clear that the key to success is dialogue with our American partners. The key to success for associations like ours, for businesses and for politicians from Quebec and Canada is to talk to people on the ground, not just White House administration officials, and to find our allies. We have plenty of allies in the U.S. on this issue.
