Yes, it is a troublesome word indeed.
Thank you, folks, for coming.
When Minister Fast was before the committee, he talked about how the benefits of the CETA agreement would be immense and he said that they would open up new markets for a number of agricultural products, including beef and pork. Yet when the negotiator was before the same committee, he said there had been no in-depth discussions with the EU as yet with respect to beef and pork.
Can you enlighten us? Where is this at in terms of the negotiation for beef and pork? I mean, we recognize that the Europeans have sensitive commodities, as do we, but do you know where discussions are at?
