Thank you, Chair.
I hope the committee will indulge me for a few moments. I have a few guests here, two from my riding and one from Mr. Dreeshen's riding. They are the Mayor of Foremost, Alberta, Ken Kultgen. He's also a farmer in the riding. Sitting next to him is John Turcato, who is also a farmer in the riding at Taber. You may recall that John was one of the farmers who went to jail on the wheat board issue, when he tried to sell some of his grain. Next to John is Jim Chatenay, who was the former director of the Canadian Wheat Board, in Mr. Dreeshen's riding. He also went to jail for trying to donate some grain.
Anyway, I just thought I would introduce those gentlemen.
