That builds upon my second question. Of course, I think we've all been curious of this, when we go into the grocery store and we see an apple from Chile, or we see a can of canned fruit from China. How does the CFIA ensure that the sprays and the treatment of that piece of fruit are under the same regulations as those a Canadian producer would have to meet? How do you do that if the first contact is at the border? How does CFIA enforce this at the point of the foreign producer?
