To be fair, sir, I thought that's where you were headed. I appreciate those thoughts, because I think that is a progressive way to look at farm labour, in the sense that if we're going offshore to get it, and indeed they choose the path to citizenship—this is an individual choice for those folks who want to come—then why not, if that's what they want? I applaud you on your efforts to do that, and of course, on hiring somebody from Ireland. My father actually came from Belfast. I actually came from Scotland, so it's kind of a mixed group.
Mr. Rourke, you talked about a number of different things. One of them was what one might describe as the public good, in the sense of how we do public investment that then becomes utilized by all folks who wish to take it up. Do you see a need for us to be doing more of that? If we're not doing more of that, you started to outline where you thought individual farmers or cooperative groups might take it on.
Could you help us understand a little bit better what that should be, beyond just that we should do more public research? I agree with that, by the way. What would you see if that weren't happening? How could we help cooperatives like yours do that type of work that becomes the public good?
