That would be appreciated.
In your conclusion, you spoke about five important points that the government should consider in order to improve competitiveness. Professor Klein just spoke about research and development prompted by questions from Francis. You do not mention any measure that directly affects farmers, for example income support. In your opinion is this support outdated?
According to the witnesses, it is very clear that Canada will never be able to provide the same subsidies given by the U.S. or the European Union. Our society has to choose. We support our agriculture sector because we want to continue having home-grown food. That may cost us as little as possible; however, it might be that, as a society, part of our taxes are used to help these agricultural producers if necessary.
We have to support maintaining our collective marketing tools such as supply management and the Canadian Wheat Board. I know this is a sensitive subject but these elements should be part of the equation when talking about competitiveness.
I agree with the five important points you presented and that we must follow up. Do you have other concerns?
