Thank you for the question, honourable member.
From the Prime Minister to the minister to senior officials, we take every opportunity to raise the softwood lumber issue with the United States. At any opportunity we have to raise the issue and to indicate our willingness to enter discussions on a fair and equitable negotiated deal, we take that opportunity.
The last time I understand the issue was raised was by Minister Ng herself with U.S. trade representative Tai, and that occurred on the margins of the Free Trade Commission meeting. I believe that was on May 17.
