I want to echo the comments made to the students in this room. I hope you pursue a career in agriculture, not politics.

Madame Citeau, I know that trade agreements are important to your members, and I know you've raised some of the issues surrounding those trade agreements. It's important to get the vehicles in place, but sometimes there are technicalities that arise. Do you anticipate any technicalities from TPP that may arise if Canada and the U.S. decide to ratify it? Do you anticipate any trade technicalities that might become a trade barrier for some of your members?
