Agriculture committee  I'm sorry; the question didn't come through clearly in translation. Could you repeat please?

Agriculture committee  Our concern around regulatory harmonization is that we have products that are compliant with Canadian food safety standards, which are certainly among the toughest food safety standards in the world, but may not be compliant with EU standards. It's not because they have assessed

Agriculture committee  There are two components to that strategy. The first component is we feel that consumer messaging is saturated with anecdotal claims about health and nutrition and what food A versus food B will do for health, so we would rely on peer-reviewed science and health claims to communi

Agriculture committee  This is bulk loading, as far as I know, although I can clarify that and follow up with the clerk. I've carried this message, which is slightly outside my area, from our in-house transportation experts.

Agriculture committee  I have to say those of us in the industry could be of two minds on this one. First, anything that improves the likelihood that we're going to be able to resolve some of these issues, or we're going to be able to move towards synchronous timing of approvals in the future, is great

Agriculture committee  Yes. I'm cheering for the Riders.

Agriculture committee  I'm not the technical expert at Pulse Canada on this bill. I'm not sure I'm in a good position to answer questions around it.

Agriculture committee  I'm happy to provide an answer for that question, and I'll follow up with the clerk directly on the wording, and provide an answer back to him.

Agriculture committee  It was 65 million tonnes. Yes.

Agriculture committee  Well, every pulse and special crop goes into Europe duty-free, except for a tariff of 37 euros per tonne that has been applied, albeit unevenly, to buckwheat. That will be immediately eliminated. There has been a 7.7% tariff on pulse flour, a 5.1% tariff on bran and fibre, and

Agriculture committee  This, for our industry, is a medium- to longer-term opportunity. Currently we're in the business of sending over whole and splits. Increasingly, we hope to get into the business, but we're on the really early part of the growth curve.

Agriculture committee  Yes, the higher end of those tariffs would be prohibitive, there's no doubt.
