If we were to seek a negotiating mandate from our two ministers, the Minister of Transport and the Minister of International Trade, they would have to look at all factors in terms of the bilateral relationship between Canada and that country, and some of these issues at play. Our ministers would certainly take those issues into consideration in deciding whether or not to grant the negotiating mandate that we're seeking.
