Hayden Baker from Katanning says small towns are already starting to suffer and close up shop.
Transcript
00:00My name's Hayden Baker. I'm a wool and livestock buyer in Katahdin.
00:05The live export ban would significantly damage our industry, along with my job.
00:12Being less sheep in the area, it's already started to happen,
00:16which means less wool for us as wool brokers and buyers to process.
00:22And there's less sheep, less people in the communities.
00:26Already small towns are starting to close up shop,
00:30and people are starting to leave, and we're really starting to hurt it now.
