No, and when we read the mandate letters the Prime Minister wrote to the ministers, we can see they enumerated quite a few things. One of them is to work closely with members of the opposition and the second party, to collaborate with them and not to be partisan. I think it's a shame that the agriculture committee has written two ministers on three different occasions and didn't even get a response.
We've done studies at committee, and we've spent a lot of time listening to witnesses. Experts have worked really hard in presenting and briefing the Department of Agriculture. I think now they're they're working with the other ministry.
It's very frustrating because we know how important this is. I don't think it would be really hard. I don't understand why there is all this foot-dragging. I would have liked to ask questions of the minister.
I was just wondering, Mr. Forbes or Mr. Corriveau, if you can update us. Do you know where this is at? Can you comment on PACA? Is there work being done between the two ministers' offices on this?
