I'll just respond for a second and then ask Cam MacKay to come in as well.
There are two points. It is fair to say that Canada's exports to the four countries of the Pacific Alliance have increased tremendously since we signed FTAs with them, and that was my purpose in giving those statistics in my opening remarks. Overall, total merchandise trade is one example where trade with the Pacific Alliance has more than doubled, from $16.1 billion in 2000 to nearly $40 billion in 2012. It is clear that there are clear links with the FTAs that we have signed with Pacific Alliance members. That is point one.
Point two is that the economic growth rates of the Pacific Alliance are extremely high. They are an economic powerhouse in the region. We have close ties with them; Canada is already deeply embedded in their economies. You call it nebulous. It's embryonic: these things grow. They solidify. This is very, very new. It was formed in 2011. That's normal progress for this kind of regional alliance, and we're talking to alliance members to gather the information about where the Pacific Alliance is headed. But on observer status, we are already observers. It was clearly in our interests to do so.
On your other question—which I could take as rhetorical—whether we are going to weaken our standards, no, we won't be weakening our standards. It's to Canada's economic benefit to enhance our engagement with the Pacific Alliance partners. We've been doing it for a while.
