I had the privilege of sitting in on several first-round consultations on the APF. A common theme that ran through those consultations, clear across our region in the east, was that the lack of a long-term vision was hindering progress in reaching our goal of returning some kind of sustainable profitability to the primary producer.
Maybe, Mr. Steckle, you alluded to the fact that what we're doing is not working, and perhaps that lack of vision in the past is why we're still sitting around the table and talking about the same things. We need that vision, and somehow, some way, we have to return profitability to the primary producer.
