Then I will ask two questions.
Is there a sense of urgency, not only in your department but also in the public service department, in response to the income crisis in agriculture?
Second, yesterday in the international trade committee the softwood people clearly indicated that the appeals panel was essentially now rendered useless with the current agreement in that it will precipitate, especially on supply management, a numerous set of challenges that the Americans will be allowed to make without our being able to defend them.
Thirdly, on the hopper car fleet, the Farmer Rail Car Coalition has indicated they're willing to support the government, provided their conditions.... There are six conditions. I believe you are familiar with them. I'll table them now so the chair can have them and distribute them.
Why don't we just go with those three, seeing as my time is rather limited, and I know yours is. I also have lots of questions for the dairy industry later on.
Thank you.
