Thank you.
Ms. Vipond, Mr. Meltzer and Mr. Verheul, you all spoke of the need for a coordinated approach to trade issues with regard to Canada and the United States.
Mr. Verheul, you talked about a North American approach. Ms. Vipond, you talked about Canada needing a strategic approach aligned with the U.S. worker-centred approach. Mr. Meltzer, you talked about the U.S. looking to de-risk trade with China, and that to do so, closer co-operation with Canada and Mexico is needed.
Last week we had Brian Kingston of the Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers' Association here. He mentioned that the sector is looking for certainty and mentioned the recent U.S. decision to impose 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs as well as tariffs on batteries. I'd like to get your comments on that.
Mr. Verheul, you said that it would probably be better to get a coordinated approach in a trade agreement rather than trying to do these on a one-off basis, so how does Canada respond to that?
