Certainly on imported products, that's something that's key to us. We want a level playing field and we want things to be competitive.
Certainly in the communications that the major Canadian retailer I referred to has issued to vendors, they are indicating they need to be on the CHC program and be audited, and/or be in an equivalent program. That's in part why some of these international linkages are so important. We've rebranded our program as CanadaGAP, and there are a number of reasons for that.
In terms of paying for the actual inspection, whether it's the actual inspection or ensuring there are programs and resources in place for the producer to invest in developing and implementing the program, regardless of what it is, it's important that resources be provided for that. We need to see that continued. There have been some, but have they been enough? Is it ever enough? But that needs to continue.
I reference the fact that certainly, in some instances, what we have found.... The potato industry, in particular, Mr. Easter, as I'm sure you are aware, was an early adopter for a number of reasons, including market pressures. In many respects, it is in fact the potato producers in Canada who've been penalized for that, if you will, by virtue of the fact that they could not access program implementation dollars for implementing their food safety programs because the program had either not received the letter of completion from CFIA, and they had to implement prior to that.... And certainly now, with the new Growing Forward plan and the changes in implementation, and the way that's gone out to the provinces, the people who've implemented this already will not be eligible for dollars, and they still need dollars.
