The importance of the science-based approach is that there are clear rules that we are buying against and selling against and measuring against. The issue is that if you don't have sound, backed science, you're potentially dealing with perception and judgment. For us there is much more certainty, predictability and reliability. Our whole system is based on a science-backed approach in terms of how we buy from the Canadian farmer and how we sell to markets all over the world. That's a fundamental cornerstone of the agricultural market in which we operate, and I think it's what makes Canada such a reliable supplier. It's because of our predictability and our consistency in terms of what we deliver.
For us, science is absolutely critical in terms of how we deal with parties such as China. The claims that are coming back from China today are based on quality. For us, it's important to take a scientific approach to understanding and refuting those claims. We believe 100% that we're delivering a very high-quality product and have met all contractual obligations in China.
We believe that any science tests from our experts will confirm that that is in fact true. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has tested every cargo that has left Canada. They have retested cargos that were in question from the Chinese and reconfirmed that we have, in fact, as an industry and as a company, delivered against that quality, again using scientific methods.
They're proven, reliable, consistent methods, and I think that's absolutely key. It's not that we're creating new tests that aren't backed by sound history and sound science. We have a very rigorous system in Canada. It's a system we should be proud of and a system we should use to defend ourselves when defending is required, such as this circumstance.
