I'd like to talk about a couple of issues. One, of course, is one of the issues we've all been wanting to talk about, not just today but for quite a while now, and that's COOL, which is an acronym for something that isn't very cool.
But I'd like to start with something I think is tied to that, which is the work our government has been doing to open up market access for our farmers to other markets. The reason I say I think that's tied is, certainly, I believe we need to reduce our dependency on one particular market. Things like COOL, things like BSE, show us why that might be. In our work during this session, we've had a steady stream of farmers, farm groups, and other experts coming through who are telling us they're very supportive of our government's work in terms of opening up market access to ensure we have other markets and especially large markets. Of course, we've done a lot of good work in that area and we're continuing to work hard at that. It's a big focus of our government.
I'm wanting to get a sense from the three Canadians here whether you would agree with those efforts we've made, the focus our government has put on that, and maybe tell us a little bit why or why not.
