Thanks very much, Chair.
I appreciate your clarifying the goal of the study that we're undertaking.
Ms. Fitzgerald, we did ask this question in the previous panel, but I know, certainly with your expertise on this.... One of the comments we're getting from Transport Canada officials is that those who are moving animals should just plan their route better. I went up to a barn facility in Thunder Bay earlier this summer. Highway 1 in northern Ontario is single-lane. There are no shoulders. I don't know if there are any other options in northern Ontario when it comes to planning the route.
Can you give us an idea of the logistics and how much planning goes into coming up with those routes? I don't think this is something that is done lightly when it comes to planning the transportation of livestock.
