I'm glad you asked that question. That's one of the issues we're also very concerned about. We have talked often about this concept of equity. I mentioned earlier that we don't know exactly how some of this money is going to be given out. We think the $600 million will be used to kickstart the NISA-type program, and we're not exactly sure about the rest. We assume it will be some form of eligible net sales, or something like that.
I indicated earlier that we have some concerns about eligible net sales for exactly the reason you mentioned. Without getting into issues from province to province, from our point of view it needs to be equitable from producer to producer. So whatever they decide on for that formula, it needs to be equitable so that crop producers get their fair share, as well as hog, beef, and sheep producers. We're really concerned about that.
I neglected to mention that we are also a little concerned about how it goes to individual producers. It's a little different from your question, but large producers versus small producers is a bit of an issue. There has been a tremendous change since we had the NISA program before. There are some structure issues around ownership and the structure of farms that prevented producers from participating in the program. I can't get into more specifics because we don't know them, but that's definitely an issue from our point of view. We agree it needs to be equitable.
