As you can see, the textile apparel industries don't always agree. That's maybe the understatement of the year. We view the two industries as having separate dynamics, and we tend to look at input tariffs, as Madam Grenier has mentioned, on the fabric. We import fabrics and pay duty on them, and in many cases, those fabrics aren't available here. So we view that as a tax issue, and we don't agree really with the textile people on that. That's the dilemma we have sometimes.
Clearly, on the rate of change in currency and so forth, whether it's through enhanced capital cost allowance--geez, wouldn't that be great? We have no objection to any of those remedies that would look at the velocity of change and the impact it's having on business. That would be phenomenal.
On SR and ED, are the ways that we develop product through risk currently captured sufficiently in SR and ED programs? No. So you can look at a number of those measures, and we would have strong support for that approach.
In terms of other regulations, Harvey mentioned that if we import fabrics and make a garment, we can't export it. Well, of course, we can export it, under certain arrangements under the NAFTA, if it's going to the U.S. or Mexico, but we pay a quota charge to the Canadian government to issue that permit.
The Americans change the rules overnight. You need 12 times as many permits as you needed last year. There are a lot of those things. You will see, coming out of the Waco summit about a year and a half ago and more recent meetings between the leaders of the countries, that there's a recognition that we have to sweep away these nuisance regulations. And any measures this committee can recommend on that front are welcome as well.
