Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Again, the canola trade crisis is critical. Here we have a situation that's been going on for months. We have heard very little. We've had to go to the trade committee in order to talk about this particular issue. When we're talking about trade, two of the critical countries that we deal with are China and the U.S. There was a time when Canada was that go-to country that China would come to talk to if it wanted to discuss things about the U.S. If the U.S. wanted to talk about things relating to China, they would come through us.
Right now we're like a mosquito to both of them. We don't really seem to be a significant part of it. Both of these things do not deal with issues like carbon taxes, and so on. Here we are in a situation where we do not respect our agricultural producers that have done such a great job. But I think it's time now that we move on.
