It is crucial. It is going to enable producers to have significant improvements on their farms. We've invested in research. We've gone through I don't know how many regulatory hoops and legislation. We've brought in regulations. Everybody said, “Okay, we're finally there”, and then suddenly, “No, you have to wait for guidance. Guidance is being developed.” It's being developed in consultations and discussions with a number of groups, some of which have no scientific background and are opposing some of those changes. Suddenly, everything grinds to a halt, which means that all the innovation that was developed grinds to a halt and...moves forward.
When you look at innovators and at innovators in companies, they're going to look at the system. Is Canada a stable country for innovation, or is it being swayed by lobby group A, B or C? Do we need to move somewhere else, where science is going to lead the charge on this?
I think science should lead the charge on this.
