Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses for being here.
When this committee was looking at trade with regard to Canada and the U.K., I know that one recommendation we heard at the time was to put a chapter on small business into trade agreements. This chapter would enhance the ability of SMEs to benefit from trade agreements through things such as information sharing.
Would having SME-focused measures in trade agreements in the Indo-Pacific benefit your organizations?
I'd like to ask all three of our witnesses here that question. Maybe we'll start with Mr. Innes.
