Mr. Chair, thank you.
Mr. Stetski, I too would like to say congratulations. This is good because it shows that we can do many types of agriculture. Local food is important, but it's not just for farmers' markets. It's not just for the “foodsters”. You can have a regional food system with surpluses and have a pretty good economic power in exporting food, so Wayne, I'd like to commend you.
As I mentioned, we're going to be having an event at Kwantlen Polytechnic by someone I always refer to in this committee, Kent Mullinix, who is in charge of the agriculture department. I'd love to have you there. We'll be talking about regional food systems.
Mr. Chair, I'd like to end by saying, Wayne, great work. I look forward to clause-by-clause.
