We're not allowed to talk politics and we're not allowed to be partisan, but we can talk philosophy. There is a philosophy in our country that many subscribe to that talks about less government, deregulation, and privatization. Those who often believe this philosophy believe we should be downsizing various agencies. In this case, we have the possibility of a loss of 200 jobs at the Grain Commission. You mention that you value the workers, yet you're saying some will have to go. How can we do that and maintain the quality of the Grain Commission as we move forward?
