Well, it's actually not your turn, Alex, but I will.... Actually, Mr. Atamanenko didn't say that he didn't want a study. He said he didn't want to travel. So that debate is over--

As Mr. Storseth has pointed out, I'm not a regular part of this committee, but I think it's absolutely essential that the committee go and take a look at these research centres, Guelph and Saskatoon in particular. I don't know much about the Maritimes, but clearly Mr. Eyking does, and if he thinks it's a good idea to go there, I think that's a good deal.
But there's so much involved in the positive side of agriculture in dealing with biotech and research and those kinds of things that you have to be there to see what's going on. I think it would be important to the committee to take a look at that.
