That's where I want to drill down on this. Frankly, we've heard some companies are worried about the quota system. Especially for new entrants, it can really restrict the amount of growth and new investment. For people already on the ground, I can see how that solution would work for them.
It seems that as far as the Americans were concerned, you were either on their team doing this or you were off the team. What discourages me is that we're off the team. Canada is off the team regarding the overall strategy. I think the challenge is where we land.
We had the minister here the other day, and he seemed oblivious, as though it wasn't an urgent issue that needed to be brought forward. I'm wondering if there is a deal on the quota system that will come up around the mid-term elections, because he didn't really seem to be as concerned as the businesses on the ground here. I don't know how that's going to play out. If we do get some type of solution, I think the people will be relieved.
We did take some actions. One of the actions I'll give Minister Morneau credit for was that he put this unique stamp, I think it was in May, on product from Canadian mills. In other words, the Americans were asking for unique stamps so they knew it was actually coming from Canadian mills.
Is that something that you're supportive of? Do you think it's a good idea?
