I'm going to ask one other question. I hope I have enough time.
With respect to the national meat code, in British Columbia small farmers have really been hit by the meat inspection regulation. In other words, the farmer can no longer slaughter and sell to a neighbour for consumption.
I'm wondering if that is a national standard. I found through some research that there is another province, specifically Nova Scotia, where that is not the case. I'm wondering if the regulation in B.C. was as a result of your organization, CFIA, saying this has to be in place. Or has each province been able to decide how they're going to handle selling at the farm gate? Do you see this as a threat to our food safety if a small farmer kills a cow and sells it to me, providing I don't resell it?
Do you understand what I'm getting at?
