I would have to answer that I think in Alberta's case, we have supply management and then we also have the red meat sector, beef, and hogs. Probably 90% of the livestock traffic down the highway is red meat, and the rest would be chicken and then dairy products. If we go into supply management, we're going to see our industry shrink even more.
I would like to think that as a country we could negotiate trade deals with others on food security for those countries. We're going to end up exporting something, whether it's going to be meat or it's going to be grains, or we're going to grow a whole bunch more trees. We might as well put the whole country back into growing trees if we're not going to be able to sell the meat. Then five years down the road, because we're not feeding the grain and nobody wants our grain, we can't sell the grain.
So I think a process that possibly could help to get the trade going is trying to sell food security for other countries, not only our own through supply management within our own country, but food security to other countries. That is a trade issue. Work with other countries, and maybe Canada can get security in other products we need to bring in, working that trade back and forth.
