Yes, if I understand the question correctly, it's can we have free trade in softwood lumber like we have in other sectors? It's a very interesting question.
I think it's possible. I thought Canada was getting very close in the legal system. I know that the United States government has taken postures and, in some people's opinions, has gone to duties that were higher for negotiating position. I know there's a lot of money and pressure on cashflows. However, you're so close that I hope you can see the course.
I'm quite concerned about two factors. I'm quite concerned that in the future you might have to start over. Canada might have to start over from the very beginning, and you would lose the trail of victories you have with NAFTA and the WTO in international courts.
The second factor I'm concerned with is that my personal experience—and I've been on this file for 13 years now—has not been wonderful with the coalition, as far as trying to come to a conclusion is concerned. I think that if you settle at this point with the agreement, as I understand it's proposed, you will have continued confrontation. I do not believe you're going to have the trade peace, which some people envision. I think they're going to have $500 million, and they're going to use those funds to police you.
During the memo of understanding, I think they contested when the rail rates changed. You're not going to be in the period of trade peace that might be envisioned. I think you might be better off achieving that final goal of free trade by staying the course and staying with the legal action that you're currently pursuing.
