Thank you.
I'm not sure that I need six minutes. I think that my colleagues have summed up the understanding that there's a necessity to move forward.
Mr. Chair, what we probably need from this committee is to have a conversation with Mr. Cuming. It seems we've spent a fair bit of time talking to people who say that we should talk to Mr. Cuming. I would suggest that we either have a written submission from the professor or actually have him before committee. I'll leave that to some future discussion about future business. Before we conclude our study and write a report, I think it would be important to hear from him.
That said, I don't know if there's anything in addition. Obviously we've noted today that even if a PACA-like system was set up in Canada, it wouldn't resolve all of the issues that might face produce growers in the country. There's been some additional confusion in this whole discussion because sometimes produce growers in Canada think this might be the end of all the challenges they face. I think we got some additional clarity today as to what it would help and what it wouldn't help.
I'll turn it over to our witnesses and ask if there is anything else that they feel is necessary for us to hear before we complete today's hearing, if there is any point of clarification that they think has been missed. I think you sense that there is a general sense of support for moving forward to ensure as level a playing field for farmers on this side of the border as exists south of the border. We certainly want to resolve this situation.
Is there anything we haven't covered or haven't touched on that you think needs to be?
