Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you, Ms. Citeau. We've spoken several times during the pandemic. I'm glad to see you again, even if it's just virtually.
I have more of a general question. Your sector, the agri-food sector, was especially hard hit by COVID-19 and the global pandemic. As you know, Minister Ng and others have worked extremely hard and been leaders in the international community, promoting international trade and making sure we don't turn inward and protectionist. One thing that comes to mind is the April 22, 2020 statement that was signed with 23 other WTO countries to ensure open and predictable trade in food and agriculture products. I know that was important for you.
Can you give us a general idea of what this period has been like for you? Do you think, as I do, that the Government of Canada has taken a strong position so far and really championed international trade in a number of multilateral organizations?
