Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My thanks also to the minister for joining us. It is greatly appreciated.
I am especially proud that agriculture is one of the six sectors identified in the government’s new plan for our economy. In my opinion, an increase in exports to $75 billion by 2025 is an extremely commendable objective.
Farmers and processors in my constituency are quite proud that our government is putting a number of measures in place. The region has maple syrup producers. That is a highly active sector, actually, like pork and fruit juice production. Everything revolves around production, because the land is not going to get any bigger. So it will be difficult to expand manufacturing plants or factories.
Producers want to be part of this economic plan. If you had two or three proposals to help our farmers and processors, what would they be? It is extremely important for them because they want to make the most out of the possibilities that exist. They have quality products to offer and they want the world to enjoy those products.
