Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you for being here today, Steve. We're happy to have you here, and congratulations from me as well. I know that you've worked exceptionally hard over the last seven years, and I know that our current minister and ministry and the previous ministers and ministry worked very hard to make this deal happen.
I'll take this time to congratulate Mr. Ritz, who of course was the agriculture minister at the time. He'll deflect that, I'm sure.
Congratulations to you, Steve, and to former minister Fast, of course, for the good work in getting us to where we are today, which is great. I think we now have to expeditiously get this in force and in effect so Canadians can start benefiting from this agreement.
You mentioned there are some time-saving processes or mechanisms that can truncate that 90-day window when it comes to the regulations and the approvals. Could you elaborate on what those might be and how we can implement them?
