Mr. Speaker, the member is absolutely right that this dumping case is unjustified. It is punitive against the interests of all Canadian companies from coast to coast.
We were very pleased that we were able to exempt Atlantic Canada from the countervailing duties. On the dumping one, as the House knows, it is company related rather than related to government programs. Unfortunately Atlantic Canada is included.
However the government stands by its industry and we want the whole country exempted. That is part of our work because we are in complete solidarity with our Canadian industry.
