Thank you, Mr. Forsyth and other witnesses.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
With different markets and different conditions when you negotiate trade deals, you have to have flexibility and you have to have options in order to be able to achieve agreements. I know that Bill C-216 is aiming to somehow further protect supply management or preserve it, as Mr. Forsyth just said, but in the meantime, it carries risk, which Mr. Forsyth also stated in his opening remarks.
What I'm interested in is this. Although we've signed so many trade agreements without having to really jeopardize the supply management system and we have successfully done that throughout its history—and we have so many trade agreements that I don't have to mention it at the moment—the question is, are there any live examples out there that can advise us on what the consequences will be in the long run if Bill C-216 is implemented, since we know that we will lose that flexibility and we will be limiting our team of negotiators on the road when they try to achieve trade agreements with countries in the world?

Okay.
There are other sectors. We offer a wide variety of products and solutions to the world. What would you see as the reaction of other sectors if something like Bill C-216 went forward? What would you see as the reaction as far as opportunities on the world stage with trade go?

Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
I am very grateful to the people from the departments for being with us today.
Mr. Forsyth, you said just now that the mandates assigned to the negotiators concerning the protection of supply management are reflected well in the intent of Bill C-216.
Can you explain what happened in the case of the Canada—United States—Mexico Agreement, CUSMA, not just so that we would concede another market to the Americans, but also so that we would permit them to limit Canadian exports, in particular for powdered milk?
How is it that at some point, despite those intentions on the government's part, the negotiating teams go even further than concessions that are not provided in BillC-216, as we have it before us today?

Excuse me for interrupting you, Mr. Forsyth.
What happened for those concessions to have been made at the last minute? We have seen that this was done at the very end. Did we not draw attention to supply management by saying at the outset that there would be no concessions? Is that not one of the points on which Canada had to give in, at the very end of the negotiations?

Mr. Fowler, to continue in the same vein, when we decide to make concessions like that one at the last minute, there are major repercussions for a sector. This was a sector that the Americans had targeted.
When we decide to protect a sector, if we keep our position like a card up our sleeve, are we not running less risk of having to give in at the end?

Thank you, Madam Chair.
Based on what was brought forth by Mr. Savard-Tremblay, we agreed, as a committee, what the timeline was going to be. We designated certain days and what we would be doing on those days. We, as a committee, all voted for that.
I have questions to ask. I'm sure my other colleagues have questions to ask. I'd like to continue with the agreed timeline that we all voted on recently that sets out the work the committee would be doing each day.

Thank you very much.
If Mr. Blaikie's motion is defeated, does the meeting on Monday still go on in regard to Mr. Savard-Tremblay's Bill C-216? If it's defeated here, is that the end of it, and then we go to a new topic on Monday? If that's the case, I can't imagine that Mr. Savard-Tremblay wants that to happen.
I'd like a clarification on what happens on Monday.

Thank you, Madam Chair.
The first question I have is for Mr. Forsyth.
Again, thank you for appearing before committee. I think you've been in the lead for most appearances since I've been on the committee—maybe you and the minister—so congratulations on being available.
When we say that we can't ever say we're not going to put certain items forward at the beginning of the trade negotiation, I understand the sentiment, but I'm curious that when we were doing the USMCA deal, softwood lumber never made its way on there and buy America really never got resolved either.
How does that happen? I'm not in the inner circle on this stuff, so how do we make a statement like that and then never get softwood or buy America dealt with?

Could I ask for one distinction on that?
I don't doubt we put it on the table and I don't know if you're prepared to say this publicly, but I don't think Donald Trump and his negotiators put buy America and softwood lumber on the table. Are you saying that they put them on the table in the negotiations, or did we ask for it in the negotiations?

Humour me on this one. I'm sure I've asked you this one before.
In the CPTPP, if we're going to start negotiations again with the U.S. and with the U.K. in regard to access to supply management, how do you start the negotiations? I'm sure you've already talked to the dairy farmers and the chicken farmers and all that. We're not going to grant any new access to the United States or the U.K., so how do you do that when you go into it? How are you going to make that happen? It seems to me as though we're starting a negotiation by saying they're not getting any new access when we start this renegotiation of the CPTPP.
