Using your argument, Mr. Blois, I would say that doing nothing also doesn't achieve that goal. We could just keep the current legislation or the act as is and rely on that to do its job, but clearly it isn't. Most often, from the research that I've done, charges are rarely laid. This gives us an opportunity through the CFIA—and I'll get to that question—to look at this, but to ensure there are consequences in place.
I didn't agree with just the status quo, and I would say that we've had unanimous support from stakeholders, farmers, ranchers and processing companies that this is a step that needed to be taken to ensure that those protesters would learn. They're not militants, necessarily, Mr. Blois, but people who have a legitimate passion or concern about what they're doing. This is a way for us to teach them that if you want to do this, there are right and wrong ways of doing it.
