Thank you, Mr. Chair. Welcome to our witnesses.
Mr. Paszkowski, it's nice to have you here again. We always enjoy bringing the wine industry to committee any chance we get. There will be samples later, right?
I'm a little surprised at the strength of the Japanese wine industry. It's a $878 million--almost a $1 billion--industry that is growing, 14% over the previous year. There's obviously a lot of potential.
I have some concerns over some of the issues you've raised. One of them is on additives vis-à-vis Canadian wine versus that of our competitors. However, I would argue, especially in the Japanese market, because it is a very demanding, very science-based marketplace, that it may actually be a competitive advantage to have fewer additives in Canadian wine that's destined for the Japanese market. Have you found that to be the case?
