They were all extremely involved. You're talking about groups like the Canadian Agri-Food Trade Alliance, CAFTA, the Canola Council of Canada, the Canadian Canola Growers Association, the Grain Growers of Canada, the Canadian Horticultural Council, Canada Grains Council, and no doubt I'm missing a few, but all of these groups were directly involved. Many of them were on the same trips and were probably drinking the same coffee that Jody was drinking when they were in all those same meetings.
