But in constant terms, in every single bilateral trade agreement we've signed, we've seen a decline in export value.
So I'd like to hear back from both of you, why this failure? We hear a lot of smoke and mirrors about how these bilateral trade agreements are going to increase Canadian exports, but in every single case they've actually fallen.
What do you think the Canadian government needs to do, aside from the bilateral trade agreements? What are they not doing? I think the issue around Pulse Canada and the lamentable lack of support that this government provides for marketing support and product promotion support is one part of that.
I'd like you to comment on why there's this failure to increase our exports after we sign bilateral trade agreements.
