Thank you very much.
That was what was disturbing last week, because I think Mr. Ross made it very clear that the target isn't Canada and that they don't see us as the security problem. However, they've been trying to get the world to work together to address the greater problem, which is the illegal Chinese dumping. Even the threat of these things is starting to affect people on the ground.
I want to pose my question to Mr. Verwey, because I appreciate your being the “little tall guy” and representing a business on the ground. You're the guy who takes the risks. The awareness, for me, is that this can go very bad very quickly—the uncertainty, the trickle-down effects. I wonder if you could comment on what effects you're seeing already. You mentioned some of them in your opening. What do you think the government should do now?
With the auto tariffs, as my colleague said, Mr. Ross stated that if we had done something earlier...and I know Minister Freeland was here last week and said she was actually in the meeting between Mr. Trump and Mr. Trudeau a year ago in Italy where this was brought up, but it's taken a whole year before they addressed it. If they're threatening auto tariffs now, can we wait a year before we take some action?
