Throw the BlackBerrys out, Mr. Chair. It would be a good thing.
Thank you, gentlemen, for your presentations.
Starting with Jeff first, I don't think you'll find any disagreement around the committee on the need to develop new products for different characteristics. The key, though, with the Canadian Grain Commission is, when you can't grade a product by visual distinction, how the commission can ensure—in the case, maybe, of some high-milling wheat that's being sold to wherever—that the quality is there for its intended purpose, whether it's making bread in some foreign country or whatever.
That's the problem: how do we find a way to assure quality? Do we have to go to different technologies? We need the ability to assure importing countries that the product is what we say it is and that we do not get blended in with number one red spring wheat, a product that isn't of the same characteristics. That's where we have to find the balance.
There's a research centre in Charlottetown looking into farm products for health requirements, etc., so we are going to be in the future growing products for other than just straight food purposes. Ethanol is another example. How do you see, moving forward, the assuring of quality? You've had the experience of Ontario.
