I'm just here to say that farmers have been doing a great job. Some of them are way ahead of the technology. They are way ahead and they are doing a great job.

We've also provided $17.5 million to the Canola Council of Canada to help more farmers implement some of those practices that a lot of farmers are already doing. We're just trying to get this widespread use through incentives. That's the way we're trying to get this done.

I'm not here to fight with you. I agree that farmers are doing an extremely great job. Whoever is doing the amazing job that they are already doing, we're trying to get those practices to be adopted on a wider spread.

Am I on time?
