Mr. Speaker, other countries are on record as seeking binding, enforceable labour and environmental standards at the negotiations. Why is it that the Canadian government is unwilling to join other governments, the government of the U.K. and social democratic governments in Europe, in seeking these kinds of binding and enforceable standards?
The minister talks about high standards and low standards. We want to know if he is seeking binding and enforceable. Will he use the words binding and enforceable, and whether he is against them or for them? We want to know the answer to that question.
