I'm going to try to get two questions in here.
You mentioned that steps are being taken to protect Canadians from unsafe products. I'd like to know what specific steps and if that involves more staffing, more inspections.
Second, a little while ago, an article appeared in, I believe, Le Droit stating that CFIA is one of 17 departments slated to have—or perhaps has had--a cut in the budget of 5% or 10%, something like that. The article also went on to write about the fact that there are now fewer inspectors, that there was more self-regulation in the industry. In other words, the gist of the article was that our food supply really isn't safe because of this proposed budget cut. I'm wondering what specific steps are taking place, then, and if that means more staff.
Is there any truth in the article?
