A little less than a year ago, in December, there was an announcement in my riding at the Huron Research Station having to do with research in the pulse industry, specifically with regard to drying times. I wonder if you could tell this committee, and those who will be looking at this later, how important it is for Canadians to be competitive in the export market and to continue to push forward on research and development in sectors such as the pulse industry.
