I think we have to tackle the middlemen, Minister. Thank you.
I want to switch to the SCAP. As you know, that is in place from April 1, 2023—last year—until March 31, 2028. We had numerous witnesses who are quite concerned that with that locked-in timeline, there's little room to change programs, which may not be adequately serving the population they're designed for. This has come from no less than Keith Currie, president of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture.
Minister, given that we are locked in and you have, in the supplementary estimates, $42 million listed here, what are you doing to respond to the needs of farmers, which have been clearly brought forward to this committee? What are you doing to alleviate their concerns and, maybe, show that you're willing to take some leadership on this, and possibly finding ways to make sure that these programs are more responsive, and not waiting until March 31, 2028?
