I would actually like to add that food processing is Canada's and Quebec's main manufacturing sector, but it is often treated as though it is unimportant. The pandemic has shown, however, how essential the food processing sector is. It has also brought the deficiencies to light. The pandemic has provided an opportunity to really expose the deficiencies that hinder our industry.
Obviously, we could make a slew of recommendations. I could talk about the need to boost productivity, increase innovation, expand R and D, and raise the sector's visibility. Canada's food processing industry is essential to the country and our communities.
