Thank you, Mr. Holmes.
I have a question for Mr. Chambers. This issue is more of a personal and local nature in my riding. Last fall, I was faced with a clandestine slaughter of sheep, as a matter of religious practice, in two municipalities of my riding. I called the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, asking them what one was supposed to do in such a case and whether this was a threat to food safety, and I was told that this was not within their jurisdiction.
Within your coalition, do you see this type of event occurring frequently or is it a new trend? Do you have any comments on that type of practice?
