Okay, I'll ask the question again.
Concerns were also raised by another witness earlier today. To illustrate the problems related to pork, he said the following:
In the case of meat on the bone, we will have to do testing in an accredited laboratory to detect the presence of trichinae, which will increase costs significantly for a problem which barely exists in Canada.
Mr. Laws and his group asked the Standing Committee on Finance that a program be created to help the meat industry when the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement with Europe comes into effect. These are the words he used:
[...] a CETA meat program of $10 million over five years to help the Canadian meat processing industry comply with the costly and constraining EU requirements in the meat import sector.
I would like to know what you think of these things.
