Thank you, Mr. Minister. That was very helpful.
May I take this opportunity, through you, to thank your department for the excellent briefings we receive at this committee. The department has been very good about coming forward as we begin new topics. On these trade agreements in particular, it has been very helpful to us. On behalf of the committee, I thank you for that.
We're going to start the first round of questioning. This will be a seven-minute round for questions and answers.
Mr. Brison.
