Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thanks to all of you. It's wonderful to be in the Okanagan, and I thank my colleagues across the table for their warm hospitality.
One of the great things about kicking it off here in Kelowna this morning is how specific all of your proposals were to the objectives we've set. We are in a lower-growth environment. We are looking for ways—targeted ways, in many instances—where we can get the kind of growth out of this economy that we know Canada has the potential to deliver.
I do want to acknowledge the ongoing efforts of my friend Mr. Albas with respect to interprovincial trade barriers. I think all of us have identified that as an unnatural or artificial impediment to unlocking some of Canada's growth.
To that end, Mr. Prodan, although I know it wasn't the focus of your remarks, I want to give you the opportunity to perhaps tell us briefly and tangibly what the impact of those barriers is in terms of growing the B.C. wine industry.
