Madam Speaker, I have chatted with the member opposite on a number of occasions. He has the largest feedlot sector in Canada within his riding. He really has been hit hard by the beef dispute. A member of his constituency has led off on a chapter 11 challenge to the U.S. government on the inadequacies of the U.S. response to our BSE crisis, I guess that would be the basis of it, and how they have held us out of their marketplace.
I was wondering if the member has chatted with Mr. Pascal on that issue and what Mr. Pascal's thoughts are on what he would like the government to do. There are things such as a chapter 20 that governments can do and so on. Does Mr. Pascal feel that he is out there all by himself leading this challenge? Would he like some support from his federal government?
