Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister for International Trade.
The United States are threatening to terminate the beer agreement signed last August. They question, among other things, the fixing of a minimum price on beer by the province of Quebec. Even if the minimum price being considered by Quebec is lower than the one in effect in Ontario, the United States are putting pressure on Quebec to make additional concessions.
Does the minister agree that it is absolutely unjustifiable that Quebec be forced to lower its minimum price to satisfy the demands of major American brewers, and what does he intend to do about it?
