That's certainly a possibility. You and I have both sat on this committee and studied processing. Especially through the pandemic, we saw that that was a bit of choke point—to get food from farm to table. However, to reiterate your point, this is not stopping domestic consumption of horse meat. This would not stop the selling and breeding of horses. Nor do we have any jurisdiction over what other countries are eating or doing. It's not about this. It's, again, cultural respect everywhere. This is simply banning the export of live horses for slaughter.
