Sure. I'll start, and then I'll pass it over to Curtis.
One statistic that I talk about is that in this one area of Alberta around Picture Butte, an area with about a 50-kilometre radius, 25% of Canada's cattle reside. Should we be hit with a disease, that would completely wipe out and decimate our entire industry.
In Brazil and other South American countries, the CFIA has not done an inspection in over a decade. We are very concerned. What are their controls around the health and safety of animals? We know they recently had a BSE case. That's a very significant concern for us should these animals and this beef be allowed into Canada.
That's one part of our concern. The other part is really around pricing. They can very much undercut Canadian cattle producers. If we want to build the herd, we need prices that support that.
Curtis, I'll turn that part over to you.
