Sorry, Mr. Del Mastro, but you're done.
Michael, I know the committee appreciated the paper you submitted. I wanted to outline very quickly for you some of the ideas that you did bring forward and that we did implement, as I don't want you to feel they were not.
The first one was in terms of the panels. The panels are more mixed as a consequence of the implications of your suggestion that there needed to be a greater diversity of views. We wanted a diversity of views with the panels.
Also, we actively took an egalitarian approach on the opening up of the invitations. We did not extend invitations; we simply made the information available and responded to people. We didn't invite certain groups and not others.
The third thing was that we encouraged MPs, through a kit that we developed, to do their own town halls in their own areas. And in terms of the focus group suggestion, I would also comment that MPs receive input on a regular basis. Of course, it's up to their own initiative, but certainly many of the MPs do a very good job, I would say, of asking for and receiving input from their constituents.
Finally, on the issue of those groups that are a concern to all of us and are, some would say, on the periphery of society in some respects—aboriginal women or aboriginal people, seniors, low-income Canadians—we did get a really good sample of people who presented on behalf of those folks. We were also assured by the presenters that they had done their consultations in advance of coming to us. We were counting on that happening too, and I didn't want you to feel your ideas weren't listened to.
I've used up too much time, but I'm going to use a little more by asking you something, Annalisa.
In respect of Maple Leaf's operation in Manitoba specifically—thanks for having it there—how many people do you employ?
