My contract is with the board of directors of the Canadian Wheat Board. In my terms, I'm accountable to them. I understand that the minister appoints me, and that could create a difficulty, as it has, I believe, in the past. What I'll be endeavouring to do is try to not have that occur, but I don't know the circumstances that may arise. I don't think it's worthwhile talking about hypothetical circumstances.
