Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the Prime Minister for his reply. I felt it was important to raise these questions.
I would like to ask the Prime Minister whether he also intends to discuss with the President, on very short notice, the unfortunate habit of the United States to be overly protectionist, which creates problems and goes against the spirit of the Free Trade Agreement, as in the case of softwood lumber, for instance.
Did the Prime Minister bring this up or does he intend to, very shortly?
