Certainly, and thank you for the question.
Yes, our free trade agreements are primarily about access to market. It's about reducing tariffs. That's the prize, getting preferred access into these markets.
Then there are the non-tariff barriers, which include sanitary and phytosanitary issues that hopefully will be determined by science-based fact-finding, rather than politics and other trade barriers, and whatnot.
The other barrier, particularly in Europe as it relates to manufacturing and short-line agriculture manufacturing, is certification, European certification, CE, which is a difficult thing for our members to get their heads around and to actually have it applied to their products that they need to ship into Europe.
STEP is indeed partnering with a number of CE-certified institutes, both in Canada and Europe, in order to get that capacity and those resources into the hands of our manufacturers so that they at least know where to go to get that resource. Any assistance we can get from the federal government in that regard would certainly provide a better pathway for our exports into that market.
