Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
I was interested to hear the comments with respect to the reliability of the supply chain, which is something that I think we should talk about. Everyone around the table respects the right to collectively bargain and, of course, the right to strike, but disruptions do have impacts on Canada's supply chain and our reputation as a reliable partner.
I have a couple of questions.
First of all, it would appear that despite having similar players, there aren't as many disruptions in the United States with respect to the supply chain as there are in Canada. Do you think there's a role for the federal government to try and make sure that relationships are moving in the right direction? The U.S. seems to have gotten it right. Are our ports of entry losing business because of our unreliability in the supply chain?
I'd ask if the freight forwarders could answer first, and then perhaps CAFTA could answer afterward.
