Mr. Lennox, one of the questions I have is that we keep referring to big business. I have a guy in my riding whose name is Ken Westerhoff. He owns Cedarway Floral. He has fresh cut flowers that he tries to get across the border. He is not big business. And I'd assure you that if his truck gets stopped at the border for any reason, any excuse...those are perishable items that cannot be used tomorrow. It's not some kind of freight...and we can talk about just-in-time inventory or anything else. Talk to those people about the importance of pre-clearance programs and how we need to make this thing work better.
