The <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> has been very clear. He stated that while we can't make up for Canadians having been left out of the conversation by the previous government with respect to the TPP, we can do our utmost to give them every opportunity to have their voices heard now. That is exactly what this government is doing with regard to the TPP.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4556436\" data-originallang=\"en\">With regard to border controls and ways we can enhance and ensure that there is an easier flow of trade and commerce here in Canada, with a particular focus on our exports, this is something this government is aggressively pursuing.</p>",

Il a dit que, m\u00eame si nous ne pouvons rien changer au fait que les Canadiens n'ont pas pu se prononcer sur le PTP lorsque le gouvernement pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent \u00e9tait en poste, nous pouvons faire tout ce qui est en notre pouvoir pour qu'ils puissent maintenant donner leur point de vue. C'est exactement ce que le gouvernement fait.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4556436\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pour ce qui est des contr\u00f4les frontaliers et des mesures que nous pouvons prendre pour les renforcer et faciliter les \u00e9changes commerciaux ici, au Canada, en mettant plus particuli\u00e8rement l'accent sur nos exportations, le gouvernement d\u00e9ploie tous les efforts voulus en ce sens.</p>"
