I think it's fairly safe to say that at the farm level in our integrated industry between Canada and the U.S., many of our producers who send weanling pigs into the U.S. to get them finished in the U.S.... Thirty-three per cent, I think it is, of those farms are now standing empty in the United States. Those young farmers who invested to build barns to take Canadian hogs are now going broke in the U.S.
In addition, the animals that were going across were going into packing houses and to processors in the United States. Our live hogs that are being marketed have dropped by two-thirds. Sixty-six per cent of the live hogs that were being slaughtered in the U.S. are now being slaughtered in Canada. These will probably just drop off, ultimately; guys will quit producing them if they're not profitable. But right now, they are creating shortages in their plants, and they can't get the efficiencies anymore. Because of the hogs that aren't going to come online from those weanling hogs and are not going there, they are going to shut down more of their plants and lose jobs.
Thirdly, concerning the voluntary thing that Mr. Vilsack is talking about for processed pork, many of our packing houses sell cuts into the U.S. that are further processed. That's going to dry up as well. I would challenge each of you, when you talk to congressmen or senators in the U.S., to bring up the COOL aspect and talk about those points and make it clear that they're also damaging themselves, as well as us.
