Thank you, Mr. Chair.
It was very interesting to see Angela Merkel on the news yesterday talking about TPP and the multilateral state and concerns about how some people are saying that we should go back to just bilateral agreements and the dangers in that.
That's one thing. We look at CETA and TPP and look at the multilateral aspect, and we also look at the fact that there is commerce involved, for sure. One thing we never really talk about in committee is the other things that are involved. There is the cultural exchange of people, the security exchange, and the understanding of being part of a global supply chain.
I think Kyle touched a little on being involved in supply chains and getting people involved in those supply chains. Then because they have parts from Germany and parts from Ontario going together, they can compete with parts from China.
I'm just kind of curious. The retail association must be really interested in seeing exactly what that's going to look like in new consumer goods and new products. Will it mean a drastic change in the flow of goods coming from other parts of the world into Canada instead of coming from Asia? Will we see more products coming out of Canada and coming out of Europe, or a combination of both?
