Thank you very much.
Mr. Rosser, I was listening to some of the answers you gave my colleague, Mr. Barlow, and you said there isn't really a comparable for how we're doing environmentally with that 10% of agricultural emissions to other areas of the world. We have a colleague coming up on the next panel from the Global Institute for Food Security, which did a study in 2022 that examined the carbon footprint and production of various crops, including canola, non-durum wheat, field peas, durum wheat and lentils. They compared that carbon footprint to countries including Australia, France, Germany, Italy and the United States, and the results demonstrated that Canadian producers, particularly in Saskatchewan and western Canada, are producing crops with the least amount of greenhouse gas emissions or carbon dioxide equivalents among the regions compared.
We do have actual data that shows we are already doing a very good job and shouldn't be trying to penalize our farmers further. Has the agriculture department taken that data into consideration when looking at implementing some of these different policies?
