International Trade committee  It's all over the place. We just put up with it. Again, I spent 36 months beating a piling case of China only to have them import it from India after they changed tariff codes twice on me. That's why I say it has to be a product quota, not a country. All he did was move it to In

International Trade committee  Yes, but to be honest with you, they're fine. They're there. Again, it's a feel-good measure. It doesn't help us. I'll never be able to open my plant up in Welland with that there.

International Trade committee  Yes. I'll tell you what we're waiting for: someone's ego. They need to get in a room and get the deal done. It's a problem. If Freeland or Morneau picks up the phone and calls Lighthizer and says “Here it is”, the deal's available this afternoon. I'm telling you that. I know th

International Trade committee  If their mouth is moving, they're lying. They will lie, cheat and steal. They will circumvent and they will break every rule. You will try to penalize them, and they're done. I've seen it done. I've been in this business for 32 years, and I've spent tens of millions of dollars on

International Trade committee  Yes, I would agree with that.

International Trade committee  That's right.

International Trade committee  First, I'd like to say that it's a shame our Prime Minister is more concerned about getting Canada high than actually keeping jobs here. That's the big news today, about getting Canada high. How about having some jobs? Anyway, they change tariff codes. They cheat on tariff code

International Trade committee  Absolutely not. I do not want a handout from the government. I want to run our business. I don't believe that long term it's the way to build a business. I think we need to solve the problem. I don't want any handouts.

International Trade committee  What the U.S. is very concerned about is steel coming into Canada and then making its way through the back door into the U.S. I think the safeguards help. They're similar to what they have in terms of section 232 for a foreign country, so I think it helps keep that back door shut

International Trade committee  That is it, 100%. I have 15 plants in the U.S., and we're booming, booming. I can't hire enough people in every plant. It's been fantastic. We're actually hoping for more as they hit these countries. Look, with the quota system, what he's trying to do.... China accounts for only

International Trade committee  China backdoors it through finished products. We have the same problem with product coming into Canada on fabricated assemblies. We've stopped that. We've put duties on those.

International Trade committee  It's a country of origin marking. I've been dealing with it for years. Country of origin markings are a state of mind. It's about whether they want to enforce it or not. I've seen it enforced at the border, and then I've seen them just overlook it. In terms of a deal, there's a

International Trade committee  We could have had it. I'm telling you right now we could have had it a long time ago. This is the worst negotiating I've seen. He can't stand negotiating with her because she's just not a business person. She's way out of her league.

International Trade committee  Absolutely.

International Trade committee  I agree with you. I'm telling you this deal could be done this afternoon. They're waiting for it. Just like on the chapter 19 resolution, I told Minister Freeland that the sunset clause is a red herring. It was there anyway. It's a state of mind. I told her to agree to the six-
