The fact is, Mr. Speaker, that the government acted and acted vigorously to bring to a successful conclusion the Uruguay round of the GATT. That success will go some way to resolving some of the dispute procedures which the United States has chosen to follow in its ill-advised and unwarranted activities.
In addition, during the adoption of NAFTA by this government we put in place a requirement that Canada, the United States and Mexico would discuss among themselves practices pertaining principally to anti-dumping, the major tool which the United States uses in its continuing harassment of Canadian exports to the United States, so as to resolve just this sort of issue.
