Just quickly, there are no enforceable legal safeguards in this agreement that would protect Canada or even insulate it from Buy American preferences in future legislation. The proof of that pudding will be in the eating very soon in the Jobs for Main Street Act, which has Buy American preferences. There are several bills that have been introduced that include Buy American preferences. Canada has an expedited consultation mechanism, but we are basically back to square one, and that will be the situation.
