When we look at this, we have these farmers, and I've seen their bills. They're literally for tens of thousands of dollars. Farmers are price-takers. They have very thin margins. As the family farm seems to struggle out of existence, are we just going to put it all on the farmers until we get the credit system for maybe some novel technologies? Until then, will we just wait for the farmers, or will we pass Bill C-206 and give the farmers a break right now? The government can at any time repeal it, if there's a great breakthrough in technology.
