Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Gentlemen, thank you very much for coming here today, and for your comments.
Something needs to be said. Usually this committee is very, very non-partisan; we leave that partisan politics out of it. I regret that I have to use some of my time here, because it's limited, to straighten out something Mr. Easter said.
I want to make it very, very clear to all of you that the Wheat Board is an issue that was very fragmented out west among the producers themselves. They want some change in it, and they've indicated that.
Mr. Lemieux, I would take it, just by the nod of your head, that the maple syrup producers are in no way asking for anything different from what they have. Would that be a true statement? They want to continue selling the way they are in a group. Is that fair, yes or no?
