For some of our diets--mine included--you're probably correct. Some of us don't always make the best choices, and unfortunately, parliamentarians don't necessarily get to make the best choices here either sometimes.
What I've heard from nearly every group that's been represented--and the clerk will correct me if I'm wrong--is that it seems to me that every group primarily represents producers. And I'm looking at Ms. MacTavish now and Ms. Lawrence and Mr. Rice and Mr. Olson, for that matter, who have all talked about the cost. Whether it be a HACCP or farm safety program, or whatever acronym one uses--because we all love acronyms, I know--they work wonderfully well, but one of the things is the cost.
I don't want to sound overly naive, but no one has actually asked the question, what does it cost you? I want to preface that by understanding that we're not talking thousands of dollars per animal, and we all kind of get that, I think. But no one has ever said to us, “Well, this is the actual cost” in the sense that we can't recover. That seems to be the other piece of that question, because there isn't a way to incentivize it, as you said, when it comes to selling the product, because folks simply expect the food to be safe.
So if the government is going to pick up the cost--and I know I probably don't have much time to get it--but what is the sense of the cost there? Do you have a sense of that cost?
