Thanks.

Mr. Samson, my next question is for you.

I've been speaking with potato producers in P.E.I. They've now been told that the disaster funding they received as a result of the export ban is now going to be considered income and could have a pretty profound impact on their AgriStability. Is that true?

I just want to make sure that this is truly the case. If it is, what impact would that have on their AgriStability, not only for this season but potentially for years to come?
