Thank you, Mr. Chair.
With all due respect for my colleague, Mr. Drouin, and all partisanship aside, I'd also like us to recognize and respect this committee's work.
I am here as a member, yes, but I also represent the ag industry, which is clearly the target here. We've heard some very clear testimony, including from the Department of Finance, about how there's been no analysis of the consequences that the government's decision could have.
I certainly understand how the committee works. However, I want the committee to know that I think the way this file was handled is a bit strange. We took the time to bring witnesses in and listen to them, and other people should have done the same.
None of that will prevent me from sending the letter. I'm very aware of that. However, when you read it, Mr. Drouin, you'll see that there's nothing particularly partisan in it.
