Agriculture committee  Thank you. The delivery system in eastern Canada, Ontario and Quebec, is somewhat different from the delivery system in western Canada. It's more a direct delivery from the producer to the grain handler. With the elimination of KVD in eastern red wheat back in the late eighties, I believe, the producer has the option to deliver red wheat as the class or to base as a declaration, say, red winter or red spring, etc.

Agriculture committee  I would just add that the ineligible variety working group approximately three years ago developed a protocol that has worked. It relies on declarations, on grain company quality management systems, and on their own testing and monitoring. As well, the CGC acts as a regulator, testing, monitoring, certifying, and providing the results of that certification back to the exporter, the Canadian Wheat Board, and the grain-handling company involved.
