Those lease costs would have been added on and the farmers would be paying more money for the service. We are saying, essentially, that the decision that we have taken has saved the Canadian farmers $50 million. That is performance.</p>",

Je pense que tout le monde l'admettra. Ces frais de location se seraient ajout\u00e9s aux frais d\u2019entretien, et les agriculteurs paieraient ces services plus cher. Ce que nous disons, essentiellement, c\u2019est que la d\u00e9cision que nous avons prise a permis aux agriculteurs canadiens d\u2019\u00e9conomiser 50 millions de dollars. C'est plut\u00f4t une bonne performance.</p>"
