No, sir. At this point, no hormones are used in the pork industry. It's unfortunate that in the retail case, we see the labelling “no hormones”, but it's only to let the customer know there are no hormones. If we read the small print, it says that all pork in Canada is produced without hormones.
Hormones are not an issue for us. There is another issue facing the Americans right now, but not us. We've just removed ractopamine from our system. That might have been one hurdle in the past that would have kept us from shipping into the EU, but we no longer have that problem.
We do have four plants in Canada that are EU certified: one in Lethbridge, Alberta, and three in eastern Canada, so they would be able to ship products. In the last few days I've spoken to other processing facilities, and as time moves along and they see the opportunity, they may as well shift and try to receive that certification. So I think they're all very positive about their opportunities.
