As always, Mr. Chair, but thank you.
Once again, Your Excellency, congratulations on your posting in Canada, and welcome to Canada from me as well.
Mr. Chair, when I see the numbers of hours and the time put in this legislation, and when I hear my colleague from the NDP.... Of course, we all know the NDP is anti-trade anyway.
It has been so detrimental to Canadian businesses. We all face these extra tariffs, which could be removed once this agreement is passed and implemented.
I am from one of the western provinces. I know that once this agreement is implemented, we definitely will have the benefit of exporting so many things, such as processed foods, etc.
I want to clarify procurement. I have a simple and clear-cut question. My Liberal colleague's comment was that we have lost 100% of the opportunities on procurement. Is that right or wrong? Is it right to say that we have some opportunities left, or are 100% of the opportunities gone in procurement?
