Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I just wanted to say that it feels good to talk about a free trade agreement that does not threaten human and workers' rights. It's a relief to be able to discuss with a partner as equals.
Good afternoon witnesses, and welcome. This is a good discussion. My first questions are for Ms. Sullivan and Mr. Phillips.
We know that the European Union makes heavy use of geographic indicators. For instance, these indicators are used for a lot for European cheeses, especially in France.
Do you feel that the European way of controlling and labelling products could represent a major barrier for our producers and for Quebec and Canadian agriculture?
