Mr. Speaker, the Bloc Québécois is very aware of the importance of international trade, and our position favoured multilateralism.
The partner we are talking about is also Quebec's main trade partner, the United States. They alone account for 57% of Quebec exports, that is, one and a half times more than what goes to Canada. As for Quebec's international exports, the United States takes in 85% of those exports. Those figures show that Quebec is an irreplaceable partner for the United States.
