Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Gobeil, on November 14, 2022, in an article published on Radio-Canada's news wire for Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean, you said that you were happy with the compensation granted by Ottawa for the losses resulting from the signing of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement, or CUSMA. You said that this ended more than three years of negotiations with the government.
I would like to know whether those negotiations with this government actually happened. In fact, we keep hearing that the government doesn't usually negotiate.
