I thank the member for his question.
We are currently working with the industry to see what the consequences would be if the World Organization for Animal Health were to issue negligible risk status to Canada. We are also doing a risk analysis, but there are different contexts in Canada and the United States to consider, which the study should tell us.
If there is another case in Canada, there is a huge chance that our status will change, and for much longer. As part of our analysis of the potential risks, we will try to work with the beef industry to minimize the risk of long-term impact to them. So this is not a decision we can make quickly.
