Mr. Speaker, since assuming this portfolio the member knows that we have certainly provided as much information as possible.
The member has been briefed. His party has been briefed. All the trade critics have been briefed. We have sent packages to members of Parliament. We have been answering on the floor of the House in terms of the highest standards for both environment and labour, and the other key issues in the MAI discussions.
The member also has to recognize and let Canadians know that obviously, we as one of the 29 countries have to respect the process as well as respect the fact that we are also consulting with provincial governments who obviously share jurisdiction.
