I will go first, and then, I'll let my colleague Mr. Fraeys finish.
To begin with, businesses need capitalization support; they need programs that will help them access automation, robotics and digitization technologies and expertise. Obviously, the current shortage has been compounded by the pandemic. The labour shortage being even more acute, processors have been forced to offer fewer products and SKUs, and to look for foreign workers in other sectors.
It is paramount that the government help the sector by establishing clearly defined funding and capital support programs to help businesses weather this difficult period.
I'll now turn the floor over to Mr. Fraeys, who may have something to add.
