I'd just like to say that I agree with the gentleman's comments as well. Of course agriculture—and I think we all realize this—is a huge contributor to the GDP, more so in provinces like Saskatchewan, because we have almost half of the arable land of the entire country in our province. But it's also a contributor to the national GDP, and I think it's a very reliable contributor because it's fairly stable.
Our producers have become very efficient. Even in the years of drought, such as what we just went through in Saskatchewan and parts of Alberta this year, producers are still able to produce crops. They're very efficient because they have access to a lot of the modern technology. The problem is that they need to be able to handle it. I compare it to pumping water through a hose. You can have a large volume of water, but if you don't have a good hose, a good delivery system, you're going to have a lot of problems with it.
I think we need to be able to increase that connectivity. It seems like the best bang for your buck for any program, federally or provincially, is to be able to use that funding very efficiently. I think it would actually increase economic development throughout Canada.
