Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Vandervalk, I was really interested in some of your comments, especially the one about democracy and the right to have the choice to sell. I think Mr. Heinbecker would agree that in Ontario the option to sell certainly hasn't made complications for his business and other similar businesses.
To make this dual marketing explainable to some other parties, if we had dairy farmers in Ontario who could work under the supply management system but they couldn't in Quebec, I think you'd have Mr. Bellavance, on behalf of his producers, knocking down the minister's door, and if you did it in P.E.I., you'd hear Mr. Easter squealing all the way from there.
Mr. Vandervalk, my hypothetical question to you is, if you were to have a vote by the wheat industry on whether to have dual marketing--and I'm certainly not proposing it--would it not be in the fairest of terms to have every wheat producer right across the country, including British Columbia and Ontario, in on that vote.
