I chair the beef value chain round table, and we have discussed this issue. I think the first step, as Jim acknowledged, is pretty clear: we have to identify that this is a serious problem, and the current program is not going to be capable of addressing it.
The second thing we've asked for is that we convene a meeting very quickly, involving federal officials and the industry, with a commitment to work towards this transition program, not to sit there and argue for the next 12 weeks, as we did in the early part of the BSE crisis, on whether we need to do something. We need to roll up our sleeves and decide how we address this instead of whether we need to.
Once we sit down, I think among the people around this table we could come up with some pretty workable solutions fairly quickly to address this issue. But the last thing we need to do is get into another federal–provincial agreement scenario that usually takes up to 18 months to work to a conclusion.
