Yes, we were consulted a few times in the last few months and we got the impression the agreement was getting close with Peru, especially after the U.S. Congress ratified it in early December. The sense we had from the Canadian negotiators is that Peru wanted to sign it with Canada and move on. The option perhaps was, it seemed to us, that if Canada was not prepared to sign with Peru, Peru would move on anyway.
We talked about what we needed: we needed parity. Ultimately, Peru isn't going to be a huge market for Canadian beef. It maybe represents a couple of hundred tonnes per year, and perhaps you could accept that we didn't get great access. We could accept that perhaps we weren't the highest priority of the negotiators. But it just seems to us that if this is part of a global strategy, if every time the other team gets a touchdown we kick a field goal, by the time we get to the fourth quarter we're going to be way behind.
