Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to thank our witnesses for being here on such a compressed schedule.
Dennis, could you explain to the committee how the beef industry is going to reconfigure itself to exploit the new market opportunities in Europe? I'm wondering as well what role the CCA plays in that. In other words, individual farmers probably have a role to play in terms of what they will or will not do if they see an export opportunity, but I would imagine there might be some networking going on. Could you explain to the committee how your industry is going to reconfigure itself and who the key players are in determining how best to reconfigure to exploit new opportunities in Europe?
