Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Greer, for joining us and for your work in this space with your organization and for sharing very critical information with us on this topic of productivity.
Canada ships a significant amount of raw materials outside of the country for processing, and then we reimport them as finished products. In some cases, this is regulatory. For example, in my home province of British Columbia, there's a rule that if you are to process food, you have to grow 50% of it on your own farm.
How can we retain more of the value-added processing here in Canada?
