Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thanks to all of you for coming.
If I could, Dr. Williams, I will continue on in that vein. There's the sense of the public's perception about its protection versus a jurisdictional dispute between one or the other...or not a dispute, because maybe that's a harsh word. But there is a sense that one jurisdiction is here and one jurisdiction is there, like a couple of ships with their lights out passing in the dark. They don't necessarily see one another, nor do they communicate effectively sometimes.
After you wrote your report, as we all know, we've seen the reply that came from the federal departments, from CFIA and the Public Health Agency of Canada. After that particular letter was sent to you, have either CFIA or Public Health made any communications or overtures to you or to your department in any way other than that letter?
