Mr. Chair, I would like to thank the witnesses for their appearance here this morning.
I don't think it's any secret that I have been somewhat critical of the proposed sale, although I am formulating opinions and gathering more information, as time goes on, from a lot of witnesses. Certainly there has been an expression here of some things that might fall into my own opinion line, but there are also some that do not.
Mr. Kiehne, you seem to invalidate your own statement, or the statement of those you claim to represent here, and I am curious about that. You say that you represent your employees, who fear loss of jobs if the sale of this company goes through. Is that basically the way I read it?
