Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses, and happy agriculture day as well.
Also, thank you to my fellow members of Parliament on my side for letting me go first on this important study.
If we could, I would like to start with looking at the top three exports to Ecuador. I have them listed as wheat, at $299.3 million; refined oil, at $164.8 million; and vegetables, at $34.7 million.
Mr. Walker, you mentioned that concern about the non-tariff trade barriers, particularly on cereal, and the 5% on oats. Have you seen any signs in some of your earlier discussions that this is something the government is considering? Also, if you could perhaps weigh in, maybe in a bit more detail, that would be a great opportunity to make sure the government is aware of some of those concerns.
