Great. Thank you very much for that.
Ms. Robinson, I'd like to turn to you and the Canadian Federation of Agriculture. It's good to see you again.
Continuing on the theme of establishing resiliency, I know that some sectors have massive surpluses of produce or product because markets, as you said, have dried up. The government announced a plan of I think $50 million to purchase surplus food and redistribute it to food-insecure communities. We don't have many details on that yet. Mr. Forbes, the deputy minister, said it's still a plan that's in process.
I'd like to hear your thoughts on that and whether this might be able to serve as a model to help farms weather future shocks. We produce an abundance of food in this country. Unfortunately, the fact is that we still have so many Canadians who struggle to get adequate food in front of them each and every day.
