Mr. Speaker, I think the member has it wrong.
Under WTO rulings, there was no protection for Canadian magazines. Now, with Bill C-55, which I hope will soon be passed in the House, 82% of the Canadian magazine market will be protected.
Why? For one thing, because for the first time in their history, the Americans have agreed that culture is not the same as other sectors. It is this admission that will set the stage for a good discussion in Seattle at the WTO.
