Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman.
Thanks, gentlemen, for coming today.
I think that we all, on both sides of the table, have to show credibility, and we've got to be able to display that there is no conflict of interest and that kind of thing. To point out an example, Mr. Friesen, Mr. Sahl, Mr. Lobdell, you're all presidents of your organizations. I guess I would say, sitting here as a politician, that if I had been president of the CFA or the NFU or what have you, and then had come here, I'd be viewed or could be perceived as having a conflict or a bias towards any of those organizations any time they came before the board. So my question is first--and it has a yes or no answer--whether any of you has ever been a part of a board of directors of any political party, or has run as a candidate, or has tried to run as a candidate. I'm just curious. I just want to hear yes or no.
