Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister for International Trade.
Canadian apple growers are looking to this government for action to protect them from wholesale dumping by the Americans, a blatant violation of the Canada-U.S. free trade agreement, of NAFTA and of GATT. The government asked for proof and the growers provided that proof. Truly time is of the essence in this matter. It has to be dealt with quickly.
Will the minister assure Canadian apple growers that this government will immediately initiate action to stop this dumping?
