Thank you, Mrs. Proud.
On a related note, what effect might the fabled 35% tariff have on that 25% to 30% of fertilizer that still needs to be imported for Eastern Canada?
Representatives from Sollio Agriculture told me that the additional costs are over $50 million.
This is on top of current fertilizer costs, which are already much higher than last year. Again, we're talking about an additional $51 million in costs, which producers and distributors will have to bear.
Could the Government of Canada help farmers with these costs?
What solution would you foresee?
