That's okay. I'm indulging a bit of time from my colleagues. If those analyses come, I think the committee will welcome having that.
Mr. Barlow was talking about revenue neutral.... Mr. Jovanovic, I hear where you're coming from. The program writ large is revenue neutral and Bill C-8 is trying to create an industry-specific carve-out. We appreciate the different approaches.
Thank you so much for that.
Colleagues, that ends our preliminary meeting on Bill C-234. I have a couple of reminders to give. I'll need your indulgence on a few matters.
Thank you to our witnesses. We really appreciate the work that you do. Thank you for joining us here today to give additional context, as Mr. Lobb gave us the intention in the first hour.
Colleagues, there are a couple of things. On Monday, we'll be studying cannabis vis-à-vis agriculture. Mr. MacGregor brought forward that suggestion. The clerk is working to have the witnesses lined up. We'll have a notice of meeting out shortly.
We have started our global agriculture food insecurity study. We're running out of runway here before we break for the summer. I've talked to all of you collectively about the desire to put in a letter to the Minister of Agriculture—we'll cc other requisite ministers—on what we've heard and to give some key recommendations that this committee feels are important.
I would ask your permission to proceed by having you provide any recommendations to the clerk and, ultimately, to the analysts by tomorrow at midday. The analysts will then provide a copy of the letter, along with what we've heard and the recommendations. We will seek your feedback via email, and then I would ask for your indulgence for some discretion to work with the clerks to be able to have something put out before we break for the summer or shortly thereafter, so that we don't have a gap between now and September.
I've talked to all of you. This shouldn't be a problem.
