Thank you very much for coming. As you know, our committee started this process to deal with the TPP over a year ago. We took our consultation process right across the country. We were in every province and territory, and we also did a lot of communication with the public on the TPP agreement.
We will probably be tabling our report in the House in a month's time. We really appreciate the input from ambassadors. We are in the final stages of our study on the TPP, and even though there's a sense that the original TPP might not go very far with the United States not being part of it, we feel that all the information we've gathered from Canadians, from other countries, and from ambassadors could bode well for future bilateral agreements.
One thing I am very impressed with is how your country has grown so much economically over the last three or four decades. It's amazing, this miracle in your country and what you've gone through. Vietnam is one of the countries I've never visited, but it's on my bucket list.
Without further ado, sir, welcome to our committee. You have the floor.
