Thank you, Mr. Chair.
When you drew a comparison between Canadian and U.S. agriculture, you said that Canada should make every effort to be at the same level as the Americans with regard to the use of new pesticides.
According to your assessment, are the Americans really ahead of us at the moment in terms of the registration of this type of products? And can we really rely on U.S. registration compared to ours? Basically, my question is as follows: is ours more stringent than the Americans’? Is the registration process quicker in the U.S. or in Canada?
