Also, then, when we're dealing with canola there are other pests, and there has been an issue with your use of neonicotinoids. The issue has already been raised with committee, and I'm sure it will be again before we've done our review.
Mr. Petelle, in a CropLife Canada 2013 release, I think it was you who stated that bee health in western Canada was strong despite the fact that there are approximately 20 million acres in canola production.
I want to make note of PMRA's annual report for 2013 and 2014. It addressed the issue of neonicotinoids as well as Ontario, Quebec, and Manitoba reports about bee deaths. Of course, people are concerned about those, but in fact, the issue was related to dust. The product is applied to the seed. We have quite a range of agricultural zones in Canada, and precipitation and the moisture in the soil is an issue, so therefore it's a management issue with regard to how much dust is created. I understand, according to this, that CropLife participated in a review and gathered people together to discuss this; and PMRA announced its intent to implement additional protective measures in a notice of intent in September 2013. The additional measures included the use of dust-reducing seed flow lubricants, safer planting practices, and new pesticide and seed packaging labels with enhanced warning statements.
I wonder if you would comment on the management issues, because there were some unintended consequences here and they're relative to local management practices. Can you comment on where we are in that process and your participation?
