Mr. Speaker, I suggest the hon. member go back and read the transcripts of the meeting yesterday. What I said was this. The ways in which the United States have been paying and subsidizing its producers are very complicated. The Minister for International Trade, the Prime Minister and myself have had discussions. Later today I will have further conversations with my counterpart in the United States and will point out the detrimental effect of their subsidization of producers in the United States.
In the House of Commons on February 7th, 2002. See this statement in context.
