But, Mr. Dade, it's electioneering, and we tend to get a little bit vocal during a campaign and sometimes candidates tend to say a little bit more than what they should.
Everywhere we go.... We just came back from meeting our counterparts in the European Union. We read stories, we hear about these global difficulties that we're all experiencing, and there's one common denominator: we're all going to get out of it, they're saying, because we're going to increase our trade. We're going to do trade and we're going to create jobs.
So I'm puzzled when I hear witnesses come before our committee and say, “No, don't trade, don't trade. Let everybody else trade because that's how they're going to get out of their woes. But Canada should stay out.” Do you agree with that?
