Stop, you're telling me a story. That's not what I wanted.
Let's go back a bit and talk about the lead found in toys at Christmastime. These toys were sent back to China. There was no talk of doing any testing. You know that, in imported products, there are pesticides, fungicides and herbicides that we are not allowed to use in Canada. You simply have to shut the door to these products, that's all. We have Canadian and Quebec products that we do not manage to sell here because we are importing inedible products from China and the United States.
What are you doing? That is what I am asking you. You are going to be receiving another $100 million. Food safety does not come from outside the country. At any rate, up until now, you have not proven to me that the Canadian Food Inspection Agency is doing a good job.
I have been an MP for five years, and you have been hearing the same thing for five years. This is the third time that I have sat on the Standing Committee on Agriculture and Agri-Food, and in five years, nothing has changed. Why is that?
The same thing applies to the Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA). We're going to have to fire you and hire someone else. At any rate, personally, I am not satisfied with the Food Inspection Agency, particularly with respect to the inspection of foreign products. We are tough when it comes to Canadian products. It's not possible to be any tougher. But when we import foreign products, this is not important, it's free trade. Let's stop talking about free trade and defend ourselves, so that our products can be good and so that the products we eat are good as well.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
