You say that farmers do not seem to understand the system very well, but I am not sure that is the case. We are questioning the idea that, in order to ship their commodities to another province, farmers have to obtain additional licences, meet further requirements or undergo another inspection process.
If we have a good traceability and identification system, we will be in a position to know at all times what route the commodities follow. That being the case, then even if the commodities go from one province to another, there is no need to add more inspection standards or licences. We wonder what purpose that is going to serve, what need it is going to fill, given that a good traceability system means that all movements of food commodities are known, regardless of where they are moved about in Canada. In that sense, it is not necessary to establish additional standards or inspections.
