On the question concerning trade commissioners, I don't have a strong view on whether there should be more, or where they should go. I think the department is in a much better position to assess the emerging needs. I already see they are using various ways of amplifying their presence by partnering with industry organizations on the ground. I think that's a very good strategy. I think more of that can be done.
The Chinese remember our wheat sales to them in the 1950s and 1960s, at a time when China was shunned by the world. That will, for a very long time, be an anchor of the relationship and a reason why China holds Canada in special regard. I think the demand for commodities, including cereals, will increase and Canada will be a preferred supplier for a long time to come.
It's not clear to me that domestic restructuring in Canada will change the way they look at Canadian supply. The Chinese are very careful to not want to interfere in the domestic affairs of other counties. They are very respectful and sensitive to what they would call internal issues. They will also be clear, I think, if they find that the trading arrangements are not suitable, or have changed and do not suit their interests. We in turn have to be sensitive to their needs.
The fundamental supply-and-demand equation is not changed. Their requirement for grain and other commodities is overwhelming. We have to organize ourselves so that we can meet that demand in a way that benefits Canadians.
