On the question of the Wheat Board, there are, I believe, many studies that have been done in the past about the economic effects of the monopoly, but in relation to whether the government commissioned any studies before coming forward with the latest legislation, I'm not aware of any specific studies. That's my understanding, that there aren't any specific studies leading up to that, but many studies are available on the issue itself.
