As a federal government, we must argue and push that. The next meeting I will have with my provincial colleagues, I will be beside B.C. and Alberta and Quebec and Ontario and try to argue that mutual recognition is very important. They did that in Australia, they did that in New Zealand, and they have freer and more competitive countries. So if we can build another kind of agreement inside the international trade agreement, another kind of agreement between provinces based on mutual recognition, that will be a big step for a more competitive economy in Canada.
On June 6th, 2006. See this statement in context.
