On my last point and this was mentioned a little earlier with regard to avian influenza in B.C. and also the potato example, you do things you know are not
going to be popular because we want to make sure we can maintain our reputation, but then when the decision is political as to whether the border opens or not and has nothing to do with science, that's the frustrating thing about it. But the industry will also tell you with regard to avian influenza that there the
agency didn't have quite enough flexibility in
...[+++]saying that two barns of poultry, I believe it was, should be destroyed, because the industry had the gut feeling that it was AI, and yet they couldn't order those flocks destroyed until they had the confirmed tests.
Au sujet de ma dernière remarque on a parlé un peu plus tôt concernant la grippe aviaire en C.-B., et l'exemple de la pomme de terre, on fait des choses en sachant qu'elles ne seront pas populaires, et c'est parce que nous voulons nous assurer que nous préservons notre réputation, mais ensuite, quand la décision est politique pour savoir si l'on devrait ouvrir la frontière ou non, et que ça n'a rien à voir avec la science, c'est ça qui est frustrant.
