Thank you, Chair, and thank you to the witnesses for coming.
We've heard quite a bit today in terms of changing marketplace, business opportunities, consumers, producers, manufacturers, obviously the food sector, and a little about government and research. I want to touch a little on the research side, because we did hear, I think from you, Mr. McInnes, about canola and what they did in terms of research and moving forward in product.
I would like to get your thoughts of who should be leading this particular aspect, in terms of getting research done. Is it the producer? Is it the manufacturer? Is it government? Who? And what kinds of priorities should we be putting on the various types of products?
We'll start with you, Mr. McInnes.
