Les Maritimes sont maintenant comprises dans l'accord principal et si, comme vous l'avez dit dans vos dernières observations, l'industrie ou le Parlement prennent des décisions, et que cet accord n'est pas conclu, seriez-vous prêt à examiner un mécanisme distinct qui préserverait et protégerait l'exemption des Maritimes?
Now that the Maritimes are included in the main agreement, if, as you said in your closing comments, decisions are made by industry or by Parliament and this agreement does not go ahead, would you be prepared to look at a mechanism separate and apart from this issue that would preserve and protect the Maritimes exemption?
