Mr. Speaker, it is obviously essential. One of these days, there will have to be true free trade. We cannot keep on going back to the negotiating table.
These agreements were negotiated, and we want people to believe in free trade because I think that it is the way of the future. If we do not want people to back away from it and to start believing that free trade hurts them instead of helping them, then we must be able to support the industry and its workers and make the Americans understand that we really want true free trade, without restrictions as is the case now with softwood lumber.
