The decision was made last June. The people at the Canadian Food Inspection Agency took the necessary time to do all the assessments and proceeded as they would have done with other trading partners to make sure we could have confidence in the product that would be entering Canada. Obviously, we had to make sure that the product was safe, in accordance with the Safe Food for Canadians Act.
With all due respect to the committee, I must point out that this decision had to be based on the science.
