I am going to share my time with my colleague Mr. Blanchette.
Right now, we have no idea what's going to be on the table. But I am dumbfounded by the fact that every time the government signs a free-trade agreement with whatever country, exports go down. So we know right now that there is a negative trade balance. It has never been as problematic as it is now. I was telling you about strategies to keep jobs and you were telling me about companies being competitive. Those are not two separate ideas.
Some say that the NDP is against free trade, which is not true. Give me one free-trade agreement from which small businesses in my riding can benefit, and I am going to sign it. That's the only point I wanted to make. No free-trade agreement ever benefits small and medium-sized businesses, at least not at the moment.
I am going to let my colleague ask his question.
