Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you for being here today. I want to percolate it down into a question to maybe Mr. Butler and Mr. Hanson. I'll start with Mr. Butler.
You've been in the industry a long time. You had a daughter who was interested and then wasn't interested. Obviously one of the key considerations is that there is no money in this. There's lots of hard work, and it's hard to make a living at the end of the year on the net revenue. As I heard Mr. Hanson saying as well, you work hard and like the work, but the bottom line at the end of the year is that there's not very much money left over; so you say to yourself, “If I have to get a job, why don't I just get a job and leave it at that.”
Between the two of you, it's difficult for the government, because you don't want more regulation and it's very hard to have the government saying this is the price per pound or this is the price per bushel, or whatever it happens to be. So what do you see as an argument?
Mr. Butler, what would be a key argument that you would use to your daughter? What change would you like to see that you think might persuade your daughter to say “Okay, I'm going to make a go of this”, or Mr. Hanson to say “All right, I'm in now”?
