That's a great question. Starting with the latter point on what the other reasons are for the workforce issues that we have in the United States, particularly in our market in the U.S. Midwest, it's not a shortage of jobs. If you talk to any company, we have jobs. We simply don't have anybody who can do them. In the tool and die and marks industry, I go back to my days working in a steel mill and I wish I had trained to be a welder, because you can't find a welder these days in those areas.
However, NAFTA has become the bogeyman for all issues with trade. I think most people don't even know that it doesn't involve China, to be quite candid with you. That said, I've maybe been in politics a little too long. I don't tell the voters that what they believe to be their problem isn't their problem. There is just an ingrained spirit that NAFTA is bad for them. At the same time, that doesn't necessarily mean Canada. All of us around this room know that.
I think what's very important in the consultation period is to come up with examples. It would have been far more of a crisis if on day one Donald Trump had withdrawn from the TPP and torn up the NAFTA. Instead, we have seen over the last three months or so—100 days and change—that there is a very programmatic consultation process looking for facts, and now is the time to put the facts on the table. This is an administration driven by anecdotal evidence at the top. We keep hearing about the Chinese steel that goes to Japan that becomes an exhaust pipe through Mexico. That's one example that I think, frankly, somebody heard in a meeting and has shared. Examples like a hamburger a couple of days ago in Washington, and using other types of stories, such as the automobile that crosses the border, are the types of examples that we need to get out on the ground into the regions, talking about those, to show how integrated our trading relationship is.
