Perhaps I can speak generally. If there are specific questions on the BRM side, then Mr. Foster can respond.
We have been in discussion with both the hog and the cattle sector. We have been discussing at length with the Canadian Cattlemen's Association as well as the Canadian Pork Council the short-term and medium-term challenges that confront us. We absolutely take the point that there are some immediate short-term issues that need consideration and need to be addressed. That goes to the discussions we've had around liquidity, how the existing programs can respond, and if there are measures that need to be looked at beyond the existing programs in terms of adjustment.
In the medium term, both sectors have been very clear in telling us that competitiveness is key. They see themselves as having tremendous opportunity in the export markets around the world. They want to partner with the government more assertively in going after those export markets. They see science and innovation as bringing new feed and forage grains to the table so they will be able to increase rates of gain and improve performance. They want to see the regulatory questions that form, in their view, some burden on the processing and producer industries here in Canada addressed. We're working very hard on how we can look at that suite of competitiveness measures to help these sectors going forward.
