Thank you, Mr. Chair.
On behalf of the farmers in Chatham-Kent—Leamington and everywhere else, thank you to my colleague MP Lawrence for bringing this bill forward.
I'm going to pick up on some comments you made earlier.
Minister Bibeau was at committee earlier and did testify. It was stated that the average carbon tax charges to farms were between $210 and $819 per farm, or very insignificant numbers. That was with the assumed backstop of $50 per tonne. Yet the Federation of Independent Business has estimated the cost at $14,000. That was based on the PBO report, which you've touched on.
Are these shifting numbers due to shifting practices in the agriculture sector, or is this more an increasing awareness? Can you comment on the discrepancies, please?
