Yes, and I appreciate that. I think our best solution is to repair the relationship with China, with whatever means that takes. I appreciate that we're looking at a multi-pronged approach—scientific and, hopefully, political as well.
I did ask the question of the ministers, but they weren't really able to answer. We've certainly heard from our stakeholders that existing contracts with China are being honoured in commodities other than canola seed. But we've certainly heard a lot, and it has been in the media as well, so there may be some misinformation being put out there, and I'm guessing it's mainly from Chinese importers, from the companies. They have said they are no longer going to be signing new contracts for other commodities. I know flaxseed has been mentioned, as well as barley and wheat.
Is this true or is that misinformation? Is there a move by these Chinese exporters to no longer sign new contracts with Canadian producers, or have they have threatened that any shipments that come to China will be heavily scrutinized, which is a pretty stern warning of what will happen if we try to send commodities over there?
Is this a lot of misinformation, or are these things that we need to be wary of?
