What I'm seeking, and perhaps you can clarify it for the committee.... When I'm having discussions with people in my riding or with farmers who might not be so excited about the CETA, they sometimes make the remark, “You're giving access to pork and beef if they can take advantage of it”. I'm kind of repeating what you've already told me, but it seems like you're very confident that your sector can, indeed, take advantage of this opportunity and, in having answered my second question, that you can certainly exploit this window before the U.S. puts in place their own agreement. Are you able to confirm that?
