Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. I appreciate that, and I appreciate our witnesses coming here today.
I know that my colleague apologized, but I think this is a very important issue for us to be discussing, and I appreciate your indulgence on this.
I want to ask some questions of Ms. Benner.
I know you had some great points on engaging youth, but before I get to you, I just want to make sure that it is clear to Ms. Bérubé of Équiterre that France is not moving ahead with banning neonics. It is reversing that decision. Even the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has said that bee populations have bounced back to a record high. Germany, Britain, and some other countries are also looking at reviewing those decisions with the collapse of the canola industry in those countries. I just want to be clear that to say that all these other countries are banning neonics is.... I think, they've seen that they need to bring some of those things back to ensure that they have a strong agriculture industry.
Ms. Benner, I think one of the things that we need to talk about really quickly is that you have a thing about getting youth engaged.
