Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Welcome to the witnesses, who are joining us remotely as well as in person. Thank you for coming to meet with us in person, Mr. Wood.
Ms. Clapp, you wrote in an article that the major agri-food firms play a significant role in undermining global food security.
I recently met with constituents to talk about food security in Canada. The government introduced legislation that has met with wide support, Bill C‑56. In part, its purpose is to address the concentration of power among the major food chains, which creates problems, including undermining food security in Canada.
In concrete terms, how do those big food chains weaken or undermine food security in Canada and elsewhere in the world?
