International Trade
Question period focused on the Mercosur trade agreement being negotiated with South American countries and its possible effect on Canadian beef. Conservatives asked why the government would open the market to imported beef produced under lower standards, saying ranchers want a fair shot and real market access rather than announcements. Liberals said Mercosur represents a large market, that they are listening to ranchers’ concerns and a study of the deal is under way, and that trade agreements are evaluated in Canada’s interest, pointing to 20 new trade and security agreements since the last election and a 40% rise in exports to countries other than the United States since the start of 2025.Written by AI from the debate.
