Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Minister, for being here today.
I want to start with questions about the Auditor General report that came out earlier this month. The commissioner of the environment and sustainable development issued a pretty scathing report on agriculture specifically. Minister, it stated that you implemented agriculture programs and policies without proper consultation, with incomplete measurements and without any clear plan or strategy. In fact, the report shows that you've achieved less than 2% of your 2030 overall greenhouse gas emissions targets.
You've repeatedly said that farmers support the carbon tax, but you voted against Bill C-234, you voted in favour of a carbon tax carve-out for home heating in Atlantic Canada but not for farmers, and you voted in favour of quadrupling the carbon tax.
Can you tell me, as a result of that report, what the emissions reductions from agriculture specifically will be when the carbon tax is quadrupled? Has Agriculture Canada done that work?
