Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you for the welcome you have offered us here. It's my first time in Penticton. I've been in areas around here before, but to come to this from New Brunswick, with two feet of snow yesterday, it's certainly a welcome climate.
As a committee, as we go across the country and hear from all of the different sectors, everybody has a solution, but there are too many problems from the adjoining seats at the table. It's very difficult to come up with a policy that's going to suit everyone.
Maybe I'll start with Ross. It wasn't too long ago, I think, that we had a farmer from your area drive to Ottawa with a combine.
