First of all, I want to thank you all for being here this morning and for taking the time out of your busy schedules. I know it's a real difficult time for farmers to take this time, and we definitely appreciate it.
Tim, yesterday at our meetings we had a lot of discussion surrounding the importance of local and regional research. I think this relates to something that Raymond was just talking about here, being able to find new markets and maybe develop and grow products that will meet those new markets. From your background, do you have any opinions on the importance of local research for developing the future of farming in Prince Edward Island?
