Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Welcome to our witnesses.
I think we're having a very useful and informative discussion here. I want to focus on a couple of points.
First, I want to talk about beef.
It's obvious from the discussion here that we need to get access for Canadian beef to have that year-round supply under 30 months. We generated a lot of goodwill with Japan when we became the first country in the world to accept Japanese products and produce again after the Fukushima reactor meltdown. We did that based on science. What we're asking the Japanese to do, quite frankly, is to open their market to beef based on science. There's no health restriction, no scientific reason to have an embargo on beef after 21 months.
I would like to hear from Canada Beef, and maybe I could get a quick answer from Mr. Tiberghien on what that goodwill is worth.
