Thank you, Minister MacAulay, for joining us today, and to your officials as well. We certainly appreciate the work you're doing to support the growth of the agriculture sector, especially in my riding of Fundy Royal in New Brunswick.
Aside from talking with participants in the industry, I also spend quite a bit of time talking to consumers. One of the areas they have brought up to me are concerns with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. Those are largely due to some of the stories we've seen in the media.
I know that CFIA falls under the Minister of Health, but I'm wondering if you could update the committee on your work with the department to strengthen our inspection levels.
