Chair, this bill has been through the process in the House for numerous years. They've had many chances in previous sittings to have input into this legislation as it has moved forward. It hasn't changed that much. It has just been contracted to what its original intent was before the NDP actually hoisted the bill.
I don't care how many hours we give Ms. Ashton, the member from the NDP, to look over this bill. She will not be satisfied with it. Let's face the facts. The NDP is not here to represent farmers; they are here to represent the big unions that empower them.
