Thank you very much for coming in today. It was very educational.
One of the things I would ask is that since a lot of numbers have been given out today, could you guys summarize some of these numbers and give them to us? Being on the committee, oftentimes we learn about the vast amount of money that's going out and the streams it's going out in. It's important that the committee members have a summary of this, so if you guys could commit to doing that, I'd appreciate it.
The second thing I would like to say is that there are a lot of numbers being used on all sides, and it's very important when we start talking about this that we're accurate and we're not just trying to scare farmers off. Today we heard Mr. Easter talking about 80%, and certainly we would like to get some numbers verifying that. These are huge numbers.
Technology is amazing. I have the blues here from a couple of meetings ago, when Mr. Easter said: “There are several extremely important issues. I'd love to deal with biotech, but biotech is not going to do anything, as I mentioned earlier this morning, for the 30 people who are now going through farm debt review in my particular province. It's not going to do anything for some of the ones who can't cashflow their operations because of the announcement by the minister on emergency advance programs”.
Thirty people in farm debt review in P.E.I. would be a substantial number of farms. Do you guys have the number of producers in farm debt review in P.E.I. at this point in time?
