I'll only be a few minutes. Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, witnesses. I won't waste much time.
Mr. Boutziouvis, you talked about the importance of food security in Japan. You also said it's a very important opportunity we have before us this time. The most important comment you made, which caught my attention, was when you talked about diversification. You said that even though our largest partnership is with the U.S., Canada needs to diversify its trade relationships and build stronger partnerships in Asia. Why do you think it is so important to diversify our markets at this time? If we do not do that, what is there to loseāif there is anything?
