Canada-China Relations committee  On the what?

Canada-China Relations committee  Oh, sorry, yes. He has been in detention for about 15 years.

Canada-China Relations committee  I've looked into that case. I call him Huseyin. Basically, because Huseyin is not a Canadian citizenship holder, we aren't able to get access to him on a consular services side. We've tried, because he's someone I would like to see. I know it has been a long-standing file, but—

Canada-China Relations committee  There are two things I would say on that. Again, on the case of Huseyin, we have tried everything we can and we do not have access on the consular services side. We've tried. If you have ideas of how to do it, I'm open to them. On Hong Kong, we support the one country, two sys

Canada-China Relations committee  We support the one country, two systems model. There are very clear rules about what can be done and not done, and that's the approach we take.

Canada-China Relations committee  As I mentioned, China is a very complex place. I think that to try to paint it as black or white is not appropriate. There are parts of what China does where we have a very strong common interest in what we want to do in advancing an agenda and there are parts of what China does

Canada-China Relations committee  Mr. Chair, this is a very interesting question. I think we do have a triangle here with China, Canada and the United States. We know there are lots of trade tensions going on between China and the U.S. There are lots of different views within the U.S. administration as to whethe

Canada-China Relations committee  Mr. Chair, I'm interested in ideas from the committee, by the way, because I think we have to be creative while recognizing that we have a rule of law and not being bullied. I think there's room for creativity. As I said, international pressure is a good part of it, and we need

Canada-China Relations committee  It's a very good point. One thing I was surprised about is that, well, this is an important area in which to do things, but I also feel a bit like we're alone in the world. The good news is that there are 14 countries that have come out. There are other countries that, not for

Canada-China Relations committee  I very much believe in that economic power shift. As I said, we're 15 years in, and we have a long period to go. It's driven by a combination of population, the young population of a huge middle class, of well over 1.5 billion new middle class coming into the system. In a sense,

Canada-China Relations committee  The world is aging. We're all going to have to deal with this. We can learn from each other.

Canada-China Relations committee  Mr. Chair, this is an area that I've delved into quite deeply with the industry, the Canadian Meat Council. The view is that a mistake was made. It was not seen as an arbitrary shift. If I might just finish, the issue was then being able to try to get that so that it stopped.

Canada-China Relations committee  Mr. Chair—

Canada-China Relations committee  Mr. Chair, the first thing I'd say is that anyone who knows me knows how passionate I am about the ag food industry, so I have a very strong personal interest in that. There's a very significant opportunity. I do think it was a punishment, if you will. They stopped it. As I sai

Canada-China Relations committee  I think, Mr. Chair, that the WTO is the vehicle that we have for going through it. What we have to say is that food security matters a lot to China, and if you think about the protein demands on the meat and the vegetable side, we are going to be a critical source of where that i
