Okay. No offence, please....
Thirty-eight per cent of our employees have university degrees. That is second to IT in manufacturing. They have 41%. This is a good sector to grow. Trade agreements have dispute settlement mechanisms, but trade agreements are about giving up a little bit of sovereignty so you can get unfettered access to that other market.
I will depend heavily on dispute settlement mechanisms so that this can be fair trade. That is important. It has to be fair trade.
We need to get into international markets and large capital investments. An ethylene plant is an $8.5-billion investment. That is a lot of risk. If you can't market 80% of the output of that, because the Canadian economy is so small, you won't invest here. You won't have those high-quality jobs. This is a risk, but it is a risk about going towards quality and towards a future where the world is our marketplace.
Let's not kid ourselves. They have access already. We gave up our tariff protection, for all of manufacturing except a few small areas like autos, about five or ten years ago. The tariffs were unilaterally reduced in Canada to zero in our sector. We compete already. We just want the same access there as they have here.
