Agriculture committee  I'm sorry. I hate to interrupt, Mr. Gobeil, but can you move the boom on your mike up a bit, the actual microphone part? Thank you. Carry on.

Agriculture committee  I call the meeting back to order. Good morning, colleagues. We're going to get started with our second panel. We have Mr. Binnendyk online, but we have some interpretation issues with his connection. We might have to wait on him, but I want to make sure that we get started. We'll hopefully have Mr.

Agriculture committee  Ray is still not ready, so carry on. You have two more minutes if you want them, and we'll see if we can get Mr. Binnendyk in on some of the questions.

Agriculture committee  Thanks, Mr. MacGregor. Thanks to our witnesses. I have just one question for Dr. Lazare. You did a great job of answering Mr. Carr's question, but regarding a couple of questions on the constitutionality of this bill, private members' bill or other legislation that comes to committee or goes through this process is vetted by the Library of Parliament and various departments to ensure constitutionality.

Agriculture committee  Thank you very much to our witnesses. We'll take a very quick break, colleagues, so that we can get two rounds in for the next one as well. We'll take two minutes as we switch out our witnesses. Again, Ms. Labchuk, Dr. Lazare and Dr. Ireland and your team, thank you very much for being here today.
