Congratulations, Mr. Perkins. It's a pleasure to have you join the committee, and to have you as vice-chair. You have big feet to fill with Mr. Kram leaving us. Congratulations on this election.
In the spirit of this committee, we work very collaboratively, which is something I much appreciate. I look forward to working with you, Mr. Perkins.
Without further ado, if Dr. Wowk from Alberta Beef Producers is ready for a five-minute testimony, the floor is hers.
