Thank you for your answer, Mr. Davidson.
You mentioned at the outset that farming was important and that it should be given more specific attention. That is precisely the purpose of Bill C‑280.
Do you think this bill will have an impact on small and medium-sized growers? The trend has often led to preferential treatment for the very big producers. Will this bill have a positive impact on small and medium-sized growers? Will it at least encourage some of them to start up again?
As my colleague mentioned earlier, many fruit and vegetable growers in every province have shifted to grain or other field crops. Do you think this bill could have a positive impact on a possible return to fruit and vegetable crops and enable smaller farms to successfully enter this market?
