The Chair Liberal Kody Blois

Thank you very much.

I have two other quick questions.

Mr. MacDougall, you mentioned many of the different initiatives that are under way by G7 partners in other countries around the world. Who is helping to try to coordinate as it relates to global food security? I know that the United Nations FAO would have some ability to convene individuals on that side, but is there some special envoy?

Is there someone who is trying to bring all the different initiatives together to help coordinate and rationalize? If there isn't, is that something that Canada, with our deep expertise in agriculture, could offer in terms of someone to serve as a special envoy to try to help coordinate the multiple efforts at play?
