Thank you. Now that I know I have my full five minutes of questioning, I would like to add that it's a particular pleasure to be here.
Speaking of procurement, I know that TransLink and B.C. Transit actually purchased buses from my riding, from Nova Bus, so my constituents are certainly very happy to have the jobs associated with local procurement.
My next question would go to Mr. Redlin.
In the agreement in principle, we discovered that the dispute resolution mechanism that would apply to the trade and environment chapter would be based on a consultative and cooperative approach. This would be a review by a panel of experts who would then issue a non-binding report with no penalties or trade sanctions in cases of non-compliance. Of course, this is a concern to me.
As an alternative to this approach, do you see any advantages associated with actually having an approach where international penalties would be applied in cases where a party is deemed not to be in compliance with the panel's report as it relates to the trade and environment chapter?
