International Trade committee  In the CPTPP agreement and the CUSMA agreement, the allocation is awarded to one side of the TRQ. It has been given to a particular group—85% of it—and the rest of the importers are left with only 15%. There is more access, but the access is limited to only 15% of the total access.

International Trade committee  Yes, and furthermore, we have a solution to some of the issues that exist. Basically, right now, the allocation model for the TRQ is based on sales performance of both domestic and imported cheeses. In our solution, we recommend that the allocation model should be based on import performance.

International Trade committee  We submitted our position, generally stated, and appeared before a House committee a couple of weeks ago. We're not for the bill, unfortunately. We believe that it will also limit Canada's ability to negotiate trade deals outside if it's passed. We do respect supply management, though.
