We're going to reconvene our meeting this afternoon of the international trade committee. This is the second half of our second meeting dealing with the challenges that the canola industry is facing on the trade side. We had the ministers and officials at the first meeting. We had people from the industry in our first hour here. We're honoured to have three farmers, one from each province.
Thank you, gentlemen, for getting away from your farms and coming all the way down here to do your presentations.
If this is your first time here, each one of you will have up to five minutes. We're a little flexible with time, but we like to have good dialogue with the MPs. I'll remind MPs to keep their questions short so the farmers can get their answers in.
It's a challenging time as we've heard this afternoon already.
Without further ado, we have, we'll start farthest west. All the way from Alberta we have Leroy Newman from Newman Farms Ltd. Go ahead, Mr. Newman, you have the floor.
