Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, folks, for coming.
We Liberals get five minutes, so I'll have to make it short. I have questions for all of you, but I have to keep to a few short ones.
This is a very complicated bill, but it's a good bill, and maybe it should have been here a few years ago. It's going to have an impact on all agriculture. I think that mostly this committee wants to work towards having the right ending here.
Mr. Chorney, I'm going to start with you. You represent a lot of producers in Manitoba. I visited your province last fall, and it's very diverse, with everything from livestock to grains to vegetables—you name it—to processing. So I think you would have a sense of how this bill affects agriculture on the ground. Overall, I have a feeling that your people are very in favour of this bill, or of most of it.
But I'd like to go a little further. I know we talked about the seed rights, and we talked about advance payments, so I don't want to go there, really. There are other parts of this bill that nobody's talking about today. There is a kind of enforcing part, so that bigger fines are incurred by probably farmers and processors. We've had some pushback on that. But there are other parts of the bill, so, Mr. Chorney, I'd like you to tell me, in one minute, what other parts of this bill you might be concerned about or you like or you might want tweaked.
