Partly it's because we grow 365 days a year, but we also have a large workforce, including temporary foreign workers. That puts us in a position that's unique to temporary foreign worker programs. Traditionally, they're under the seasonal ag worker program.
To answer the question about the $2.6 billion, that was a number gathered by the Canadian Federation of Agriculture from all its membership. We included our numbers there, which included not only production losses but the costs of just having to supply the equipment that provided double the amount of transportation, to install the barriers in the lunchrooms in the packing facilities. There are a number of different things that have taken place that have increased the costs significantly in order to provide the foods in grocery stores.
Again, I can't help but think that, with all these issues being brought forward about costs of living and other industries struggling, we all eat three times a day, if not more. I just want to express the importance of how we need to make sure this food supply is domestic. We need to make sure we have these industries sustaining themselves and not running into these situations where they have liquidity issues and are having to lay off. We don't want to be importing our food, just like we don't want to be importing our oil. We want to be supplying ourselves and getting these foods to the grocery stores, and making sure places like Carleton Mushrooms are doing well, staying open and providing our food.
