It's interesting. We never had trucking mandates for the international border or interprovincially during the height of the pandemic. Now, when provinces are lifting mandates, it seems quite counterproductive to be putting in these mandates when we seem to be on the other side of this pandemic.
The other aspect of this is that, on February 20, the federal government is going to be bringing in or starting to enforce these new animal health transportation regulations that have been on the books for a couple of years but they haven't really been enforcing them. Again, when we are in a supply chain crisis, which I think all of us agree is the fact, it was really disappointing when we had the officials from AAFC here last week and I asked them about this question, had they been in consultation to maybe extend that deadline until we can get through this crisis, and they said they haven't really been consulting on it. This has a direct impact on agriculture, agriculture processing and producers.
Have you been consulted or have you had any conversations with Transport Canada or with Ag Canada in terms of the impact of enforcing those new animal health transportation regulations, which are going to be difficult in the best of times, but certainly in circumstances we find ourselves in now? What will be the impact of those new regulations, and have you been consulted or put forward a proposal to again delay the implementation of those new regulations?
