Thank you, Madam Chair, and to all the witnesses for coming out today.
Let me start by saying we certainly are the party of free trade. It's not our intention at all to hold up CUSMA in any way, but we also have to do our due diligence. It's for our families, our businesses and our country. That's why we ask a lot of these questions. As many of you will know, unlike the U.S. Congress that was provided with an in-depth economic study, Canadian parliamentarians have received no analysis despite repeated requests. We've had to depend on other studies, most recently the C.D. Howe Institute's report and the testimony before this committee.
Some industry leaders have described CUSMA in less than glowing terms, saying the deal is better than no deal, while others have offered their enthusiastic support. Most have welcomed the stability it will provide after three years of uncertainty. Some have said the devil is in the details.
To the chamber of commerce, sir, you represent a number of sectors in Quebec. Does the level of enthusiasm for this agreement differ from sector to sector?
