Thank you. I know about those programs.
The Liberals made a commitment that it's only going to affect 0.13% of the population. I haven't heard from a farmer, in talking about succession planning with their kids, who has not been affected. In fact, in 2004, the total farm debt was $48.9 billion across Canada, and in 2023, the total farm debt was $140 billion.
How do you think the increase in capital gains is going to increase the debt load on the next generation of farmers? How do you believe they're going to make a go of it, Mr. Minister?
