There were several methods for choosing the chairs that I'm aware of. A couple of them stood up and said that they would like to be chairs and one or two of the co-chairs stepped up about a year into the process, others of them were picked because they were deemed to be the one to lead and others like myself were asked to step into the role later in the game. Which team was it that you were on - it was LUCAT wasn't it? I know the environmental team was on top of things right out of the gate and never looked back.
Actually, at the start of the process there were very few government people involved. It wasn't until the major reshuffle was happening that many of them got onto teams as a means of helping to justify their positions. In some cases, the team was more government folk - provincial and municipal - than it was industry. Just the way it ends up sometimes.
I think overall the teams felt that they had accomplished the goals that they had set out. There should be a retrospective coming out at some stage on the Ag Summit - 5 years later - as the chairs have been interviewed over the past couple of months. I don't know when it is going to be coming out - we weren't given that information, but when I am, I will post it here so people can have a look.
