Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. McCann, I'll turn my last question to you to wrap up this round.
I know that your institute's work reflects systems thinking. You research complex and interconnected food issues and you bring voices to the table.
I was just looking at the European Union. They've put in place a contingency plan following their experiences with the COVID-19 pandemic and all of the stresses that caused for their food system, their transport system and so on. In terms of here in Canada, you talked about the vulnerabilities we have in our various systems, and you also talked about climate change.
The other hat I wear in the House of Commons is a public safety one, and that also covers emergency preparedness. In looking at what other jurisdictions are doing, notably the European Union, what role do you think our federal government can have, whether it's the Department of Emergency Preparedness or Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, in maybe putting in place our own contingency plan? This is a problem that's bigger than what any one region or any one province can handle. Do you have any thoughts on that particular aspect?
