Mr. Speaker, there has already been and continues to be a wide range of consultations. There were extensive hearings held by a parliamentary committee which issued a report. There are all sorts of meetings and discussions going on and I do not know how the hon. member expects us to give him a more concrete answer to what he asks because at this point we do not know if there is ever going to be an MAI agreement.
We have said that if there is not the right deal for Canada we are not going to sign it.
