Thank you, Mr. Chair.
When the dairy farmers of my riding come to me and when the dairy producers of my riding, company representatives, come to see me, both groups are mighty honest, hard-working, and sincere people, I believe.
This has been going on for quite some time, even before this January decision. The timeline of what seems to be a continuous crisis continues on, and it continues on now that the minister is saying we should all get together. How long before we actually get a long-term solution or a very short-term solution? How long can you hold on without a short-term solution?
Secondly, I'm going to ask this as a supplemental. Where can we get some philosophical conversions? Is there anything that the parties agree on at this stage? Where is there some common ground?
