Mr. Poirier, do you believe the government should invest more money in northern communities so they can actually grow wild rice? I see less and less in my community as time goes on. Everyone was doing it when I was younger, but it seems there's a trend for the next generation to do other things, other than actually grow their own food.
From your perspective, do we have to have a more education-based approach to this, starting from the youth, or the next generation, to encourage them to grow their own food?
