The parliamentary secretary says that $755 million has gone out to 125,000 producers. Do you know how much each producer received? They received approximately $6,100 each. If we calculate that agricultural producers have assets that come out to $2 million or $3 million, $6,000 in comparison with $3 million in investments is not very much.
It is all well and good to say that we gave out millions of dollars, but the fact remains that 125,000 producers received an average of $6,000 each. That is not very much for someone who invests a million dollars per year. Six thousand dollars will not fill the pockets of a producer at the end of the year, I can guarantee you that. They will not be able to pay their taxes with that amount.
