Thank you.
Mr. McCreary, I had the pleasure of working with you just a few short years ago on the Canadian Wheat Board. Obviously, it's something that was very important to my constituency with the port of Churchill.
I'm concerned when I hear about the focus of grain going west and needing to find solutions about it going west. There is no question that needs to be part of what we're focused on here. Yet the reality for a lot of Manitoba farmers and northern Saskatchewan farmers is that the port of Churchill, and even more so, the port of Thunder Bay, is where they go to get their product out.
Given that reality, understanding that Alberta's situation is different, the farmers in Saskatchewan face a different situation, and it has everything to do with geography, and we need to have a multi-pronged approach that maybe only an authority could help give guidance to, could you speak to how important an authority is?
