For the record, we represent a large portion of the agriculture and agri-food sector, not the supply management sector and not the wine industry but beef, pork, wheat, cereals, whole seeds, grains, pulses, malt, sugar and processed food products.
We are very concerned about the state of the WTO, which needs to be modernized. Its dispute settlement system is not fully operating. There needs to be reform work done on its negotiating processes as well as the overall governance of the organization. The Doha round has not moved for a long time, yet it's remained a very important forum for us to address, not only dispute settlements but important things like agriculture and domestic subsidies as well. We absolutely need the WTO because it's the basis for the global rules-based trading systems. There needs to be adherence to the rules, and those need to be made based on science as well. It's really important that it continue to function properly and deliver on stable and predictable trade. This is really essential for our own economic recovery.
