As I say, it's hard to say how the Pacific Alliance documents and how the different agreements that take place or discussions that take place.... As far as I know, Canada is not participating in the discussions of the different working groups now. But one of the questions I raised that I think this committee needs to look at is to engage with the negotiators of the Pacific Alliance and ask the questions. What is their view on corporate social responsibility? What is their view on how foreign companies can act in their countries? What is their view on the kinds of protections that can be put in place that don't jeopardize the human rights and democratic governance of a country?
