I'm going to be very succinct in my questions. They're going to be pointed, but one thing I want to put in focus first.

We talk about the $100 million that you're asking for, Mr. Gilroy. To put that in perspective, $170 million of a $500-million program on the farm options program is allocated to accountants. So just keep that in your mind.

On the issue of the cruelty to animals bill, Bill S-213, Ian, you know the bill. You know what it's about. You talked about the treatment of animals earlier. Do you support that bill?
