It's a perishable food act. There are a number of things that I think members will allude to if this gets passed. There was a letter relating to this earlier, which was alluded to, that we would get reciprocity with the U.S.
We have to look at this whole bill as giving our fresh produce farmers certainty in the market. That's what they're looking for. I think it's a sector in Canada...and I've talked about this before. You can move a General Motors plant, but you can't move a farm. We are blessed in Canada with the most arable land, and this is one sector that I believe should be...and this isn't a partisan comment.
When I look at the budget, I believe I'm looking for a vision of the country. One of the visions for Canada should be agriculture. That should be something that we're pushing. We should be doing everything we can for agriculture to become number one in the world. From Ontario and Quebec, and right from coast to coast to coast, we should have have that as a vision for the country.
We go into non-OECD countries to teach people how to grow fruit and how to make fresh water. This is an industry that I believe in and that I know everyone in this room believes in. That's why we're all here together.
I think this is a great piece of legislation and we have to try to get this passed.
