Madam Speaker, I know the hon. member talks to quite a number of people. One of the questions that has been raised with me by many producers is how a judge from Montana could close down the border. It has been said to me that for a nation trying to hold itself up as an example of democracy based on the rule of law, this decision in which we were not even allowed standing as a country is really an affront to justice.
The member and I have talked about that a bit. I wonder if he has any comments he might want to express on that point because it flies in the face of common justice where all sides of the case should be heard. It seems to me that politics entered the courtroom in the United States and that speaks pretty sadly of that nation, not in terms of the American administration at the president's level and the level of secretary of agriculture. The fact that we could have an affront to justice in a way that would close the border and throw the lives of Canadians into jeopardy is a problem.
