All right. I will do my best.
Canada has led on a number of international statements, whether at APEC, the G20 or the WTO, with a view to encouraging other countries to keep their supply chains open and not impose trade restrictions. Our department has been tracking, since the beginning of the pandemic, the number of trade restrictions that countries have imposed, ranging from outright export bans to other types of trade restrictions. Well over 200 trade restrictions have been imposed by different countries around the world since the beginning of March. The vast majority of those have not been notified to the WTO, so there has been a lack of transparency, which obviously impacts Canadian business to a very significant extent.
We have really tried to make the case internationally that any measures countries may need to undertake in response to the pandemic be targeted, proportionate, transparent and consistent with WTO rules. More recently, in the context of the Ottawa Group on WTO reform, which Canada leads, we've been working very closely with like-minded WTO members to try to see what we can do in terms of encouraging the further openness of supply chains.
That includes, for example, the work we're doing right now on trade and health to look at whether there are ways in which we can promote more open trade on a variety of medical and health-related products.
