Mr. Speaker, the hon. member suggested in his opening remarks that I might recall Sir John A. Macdonald was a protectionist. Maybe he was there, but I was not at the time so I do not recall his position on that and I do not recall the debate.
The question was whether I think the government should consult. I do think it should consult, but the key word is I think it should listen as well as consult. It should ensure that the views of all Canadians are brought together and included in the chapter 11 clause. Then I think the government has to be very firm and vigilant to ensure that the clause is changed.
