I have to unmute. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ecuador has not undertaken as extensive a consultation process as Canada's, but it has expressed interest in Canadian technical assistance and support—how we conduct consultations in Canada and reach beyond the traditional business communities to other groups. We're looking at supporting them in this. Of course, it's up to Ecuador to consult here, not Canada.
I can say that I've met with most of the business groups here—the export chamber and the Canadian chambers of commerce. In Quito and Guayaquil there is very high interest in this agreement in the business community, the export sectors and other sectors. We've also been reaching out to different cities and areas of the country and the chambers of commerce in those areas.
