Thank you, Mr. Chair.
First, I would like to welcome Mrs. Ève-Mary Thaï Thi Lac who is now a member of this committee.
Thank you very much for your appearance this morning.
One of the things that caught my attention in your presentation: Our minister has brought me along trying to instill in me that our ministry is trying to put farmers first. Somewhere in your comments you mentioned you have quite a positive relationship with farmers, and my ears perked up. Can you expand on that?
We're trying to develop programs, of course with farmers' input, that are made essentially by farmers, and for the good of all the people concerned. Can you tell me how that relationship is working and expand a little on that comment?
