This is an interesting discussion.
Mr. De Nardi, we are hearing about flaws in trade agreements, often putting the Canadian market at an advantage. Take dairy farmers and processors, for example. I hear a lot about the reciprocity of standards. Products come into Canada, but some of our products can't be exported to other countries because they don't meet the standards. I also get feedback on the quotas.
I'm curious as to whether the sector is consulted on the negotiations. It's hard to imagine that it is. My understanding from your comments is that Canada often seems to get the shaft when it comes to the negotiations. Another witness brought up the issue of vehicle exports and Japan.
What do you think of all that?
