Mr. Speaker, if the hon. member would remember what we talked about when I appeared before the committee on estimates, we did talk about a number of bilateral trade policies that we were undertaking, including with Japan, Korea, the AFTA, the CARICOM, the CA4 and Mercosur in order to restart the trade agreements of the FTAA.

We are engaged in China in terms of a foreign investment protection act. We are engaged with India.

If the member had listened when she was at committee she would realize what we are doing.
