Mr. Whidden, you are right when you say that we are good at what we do. Now the government must have the political will to ensure that we can continue to be good at what we do, with the cooperation of farm producers, of course.
The Canadian government recently made a significant decision with respect to the use of article 28 and the import of milk proteins. Obviously, we were very pleased with that decision.
However, we don't discuss composition standards very often because now we have, if I can say this, turned off the tap. I would like to hear your comments on the importance of this issue, which was also announced by the minister during the Dairy Farmers of Canada Convention.
Do you think using article 28 coupled with milk product composition standards will make it possible to provide some longevity for dairy producers, at least as far as the manufacture of our products is concerned, so that we can limit imports of dairy products or milk proteins, which is an important pillar in this sector?
