Maybe I need to explain myself more clearly. I'm saying there is a trade agreement on the one hand and there are a number of things being negotiated related to market access and other things; but when you look at our policy in general related to manufacturing, there are a lot things we can do without reopening the trade agreement. We have a trade agreement with the United States, and there are a lot of things we can do to help manufacturers be more competitive in the U.S. markets without reopening the agreement.
The accelerated capital cost allowance for manufacturers across Canada is something that has been very beneficial. Should we look at specific measures for specific industries that need additional support so that they can have a level playing field? Yes, we are certainly in favour of that. As I said, there are things we can do to improve the competitiveness of shipbuilding and other industries, but if we can look at things we could do outside this trade agreement without reopening it....
There are a lot of things we can do outside trade agreements in general. The government should sit down with this specific industry and come up with a plan that ensures that this industry can compete on a level playing field.
