Thanks for that, Mr. Calkins. I appreciate you talking about the research that's lost.
Rickey, it's great to see you, by the way.
Heather, it's good to see you as well. Thanks for being here.
Ms. Oatway from Western Crop Innovations was talking about the loss of research capability. Mr. Yada, you talked about canola as an example, which took more than 20 years to develop in Canada. It was a partnership, if I recall, between the University of Manitoba and AAFC. More than 50% of the wheat varieties that Canadian farmers use were developed by AAFC. We're hearing that the government is hoping the provinces and universities will take over this research that is now going to be lost as a result of these cuts.
Mr. Yada and Ms. Bruce, do universities have the resources—the budgets—to take on the lost research that the current government is now ridding itself of?
