Before Olymel started reducing their production a couple of years ago, we were shipping approximately 25,000 market hogs per week to Olymel. As the cutbacks happened, it tended to be the Ontario hogs that would be cut back first, or in conjunction with Quebec hogs. That would force Ontario hogs west or south to alternative markets, increasing transport costs and generally meaning less returns for those hogs.
