Thank you, Mr. Chair.
To the question from the member, yes, biosecurity is a strong tool to prevent diseases. As I explained in my answer to the other question, we are there to support the development and implementation of biosecurity measures. It is a provincial producer's responsibility to implement them and enforce them.
We will only go and look at biosecurity issues if there's a regulated disease, because that is under the purview of our federal government. As agriculture is a shared responsibility, many of the diseases are managed by the provincial government. We manage the diseases that are regulated or that are not present in Canada. In other words, we prevent the diseases from entering the national borders. That's where our responsibility for trade comes in. Biosecurity is a good tool, but the implementation and enforcement of them are under provincial and producer responsibility.
