Thanks.
You bring up a good point. The article that Dr. Sylvain Charlebois had out last week or the week before said that if there isn't some immediate assistance, we could lose up to 15% of our farms through this season. That will have a significant impact on our food security and certainly on the price of groceries on the grocery store shelves, not to mention, as Claire said, the opportunity for us to meet the global food shortage that could be a result of this.
How real is the financial crisis that agriculture is facing? Is the number that Dr. Charlebois brought up accurate?
