Mr. Chair, I do not think I have seen that article, but I know a lot has changed since 2017.

Animal Health Canada was created and other collaborative structures were put in place with the provinces and the industry to be better prepared to deal with African swine fever and other animal diseases.

I do not know if this directly addresses the issue raised in the article, but there have been many changes.
