We're absolutely reaching out. The trade commissioner service, through its SME program, through its innovation program, and through its core programs reaches out to the sector and has a very close working relationship with it. I will speak about just two of the virtual trade missions that I, as the minister, have led.
Typically you have about 35 companies physically going with the minister. In the virtual trade mission to South Korea, we had over 200 companies, and to the three-day business summit in the European Union, celebrating the three-year anniversary of CETA, we had over 1,100 businesses.
Looking at how we can continue to do business and support Canadian businesses looking to grow and export is what we are committed to do and what this government is committed to, and I want to thank the trade commissioner service for all of its terrific work.
