We're stunned. This is different from the statements made by Ms. Freeland here in the committee and in the House of Commons, when she urges the opposition to move quickly. She told us that all the consultations were done, and that extensive consultations on exports and tariffs were held.
I gather that the government didn't consult you on this issue. You've just made that quite clear.
Was there any discussion on this? Were you advised that this option would be put on the table? Did you learn this, as we did, after the end of the negotiations?
