I understand you very well.
I said at the outset that we did not oppose importing, but we had to be cautious about Africanized genes. Assume that genes like this invade Canada or Quebec and drones from those hives arrive in the summer. I agree that they won't make it through the winter. However, if one of our queens mates with an Africanized drone during the summer that came from a hive brought in from the United States, the gene will be transmitted to the queen during fertilization.
Ms. Lamothe Boudreau is going to sell us queens with the Africanized gene, which will perpetuate itself over time. It is the transmission of the gene that is the issue. I agree that the Africanized bees won't make it through the winter. However, Ms. Lamothe Boudreau's bees that have the gene will. That is kind of how transmission can occur.
