Thank you, Chair.

Thank you, witnesses, for appearing today.

I'm going to ask, Mr. Ruel, if you can continue on the point that you were making there because, as you've just mentioned, our number one trading partner is not allowing importation of chicken from Ukraine at this point. Can you elaborate on how that impacts the industry, why the U.S. made that decision and perhaps why Canada should have looked at the U.S. when making their decision as well?
