Through you, Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the member for Niagara Centre for all the work he does for his region.
The new NAFTA safeguards over $2 billion a day in cross-border trade. That means businesses in Niagara and across the country have virtually tariff-free access to the U.S. market, supporting hundreds of thousands of Canadian jobs. This means good news for workers, employers and the economy everywhere throughout the country, including the beautiful Niagara region.
Let us all in this House do our part and ratify this agreement.
