I call our meeting to order.
Before we start with our witnesses today, I'd like to formally recognize quite a number of guests with us today.
We have a delegation here from Gabon. In particular, I'd like to recognize Ms. Rose Francine Rogombé.
Ms. Rogombé, welcome to you and your delegation. I hope you enjoy our committee. I'm not sure that you'll learn anything, but most days are interesting. Welcome anyway, and thanks for being here.
We also have quite a number of dairy farmers in the crowd who are in Ottawa for meetings and so on, so welcome to all of you.
With no further ado, we'll move to our witnesses.
The Dairy Farmers of Canada are represented here by Mr. Rejean Bouchard.
We have, from the B.C. Association of Farmers' Markets, Mr. Jon Bell.
From CropLife Canada, we have Dennis Prouse and Peter MacLeod .
First of all, Mr. Bouchard....
No, I'm reading from the wrong list here.
My apologies, Mr. Lampron. You have ten minutes or less, please.
