I call the meeting to order.
Welcome to the table this morning. We have Roger Holland and Richard Mardell, with the Western Cervid Ranchers Association; Wayne Goerzen, who is with the Saskatchewan Alfalfa Seed Producers Association; and Kenton Possberg, with Possberg Grain Farms. We're expecting John Treleaven to join us from Farm Pure Inc.
We're going to continue with our cross-Canada tour and study of the agriculture policy framework. We are looking forward to your comments this morning.
With that, I'll turn it over to the Western Cervid Ranchers Association. Roger, can you keep your opening comments to ten minutes or less?
