I cannot, Mr. Gemme, say with kinder words that although you may have been afraid to come here, you are an excellent advocate for your cause.
I also can't imagine the suffering that you're experiencing in Quebec. I know a law firm in my city--I'm a lawyer originally--burned down completely and they lost everything and they're still trying to recover. I can't imagine what you're suffering through.
I am curious about one thing. You talked about moving to other major crops and being encouraged to move to other major crops. I've read in a report that this also is being encouraged. You indicated the difficulty in moving to other major crops, and in moving to other major crops you'd be restricted, really, to one or two producers.
What would the model look like for the 21 producers who are affected? What would the model look like? Would they have to sell their land to one large co-op or give up their rights in some way? I'm not certain. Can you talk more about that?
