Thank you very much, Mr. Barlow.
I very much appreciate this bill being brought forward. It does a lot for our producers when it comes to having clarity around who can and can't be on their farm. It also really gives producers some peace of mind.
You talked about the viruses and diseases that can be brought onto farms. Would I be right in saying that's one of the reasons there is a higher fee or bigger penalty for organizations and corporations? The example you gave was of someone protesting on a hog farm in B.C. and then coming to a turkey farm in your riding.
Can you give us your thoughts on that? Why are there higher penalties for corporations and organizations?
