Thank you, Mr. Chair. I appreciate my colleague allowing me an opportunity.
Mr. Schlegel, I have two questions for you, if I may. You have categorized the December 19 announcement--and I'm using the term loosely--as a cruel joke on the producers. I presume you're saying it was an announcement without meaning, without substance, with no relief whatsoever being provided for the producers. That's my first question to you, Mr. Schlegel or Mr. Moffett.
Secondly, in terms of the numbers, how many farm families in Ontario are recorded as having already gone out of business or as very soon to be going out of business, and how many market animals does that represent?
