Good morning and thank you for your excellent presentation.
Some countries have domestic policies that favour domestic procurement of apparel and textile products without necessarily going against WTO rules. Could the Canadian government similarly strengthen its domestic policies in order to encourage purchases of Canadian clothing and textiles while still abiding by the WTO rules against protectionism?
In other terms, can we have policies to supply the Canadian Forces and other federal institutions and to favour our own domestic products without being seen as going against WTO rules? I think we can do more to encourage domestic procurement.
