Thank you for that question. Our belief, as I mentioned in my introductory comments, is that given that it's small and medium-sized enterprises that are often more adversely affected by complex customs regulations at the border, improving transparency and facilitating the cross-border trade of goods will in fact benefit small and medium-sized companies even more than larger firms, so we believe the concerns expressed are not founded. We think that if you reduce trade administration costs, Canadian small and medium-sized enterprises in all sectors, including the agriculture sector, will be more competitive and will better integrate into international trade.
