Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

I want to thank all our colleagues who have taken the time to join and discuss food processing in Canada. Like us, you understand the importance and the fragility of this sector. I am sure that the COVID-19 pandemic has made that even more evident.

My first question is for Mr. Seppey.

Do we have some sort of overview of food processing in the country? Do we know whether it is enough or not enough? Is it diverse enough?
