Mr. Speaker, as the hon. member said, Canada's position will be stated publicly on Monday, but this will still be timely in terms of discussions at the official level and it will be very timely in terms of when the decisions are made by ministers. This will be at the end of the conference and the ministerial portion does not even begin until December 8.
Canada's position will be known well before that time. It will be a clear position. It will be a good position, unlike the Reform which has stated they do not know what they are talking about at all on this subject.
