It's a pleasure to have you two here.
First, thank you for what you do for business and for promoting trade for Canada. I know that in Mississauga, in my riding, we have our economic development department, and they were down in Brazil numerous times. They were able to be successful, but it took many trips over many years before we landed a company, Biolab Pharma. They came in with about a $57-million investment into Canada.
How do you see the commitment of Mercosur countries—maybe Brazil in particular to you, Ms. Saad—in opening up the markets in this liberalization? What would a potential agreement do to help in terms of bringing more business to Canada and vice versa in terms of our trade down there?
