Mr. Speaker, frankly I am amazed by the question from the opposition. We have been asking for removal of the countervailing duties of 19% from day one. We have been saying for months that we are trading fairly in the United States and now we are being asked if we asked the American administration to eliminate the 19% countervailing duty.
I have asked. The Prime Minister asked as well when we met with President Bush. We are doing a lot of very serious work, really constructive and long lasting work on the softwood lumber issue.
