Yes. You're so right. We had to face the drought in the west and then the floods in B.C. Farmers are the first ones to be affected by these extreme weather events.
We have our business risk management in place, and we also have the disaster financing assistance program. For B.C. we were able provide, with the province, $228 million. I understand the applications are already being made. Money is being sent to farmers. In the last year or so, we've improved the AgriStability program, which is the first safety net that farmers benefit from when they face a hard situation. We removed the reference margin limit, which put $95 million more into this program. We still hope that the prairie provinces will join and we will be able to increase the compensation rate from 70% to 80%.
I can tell you that while we are discussing the next framework agreement for 2023 to 2028, business risk management is also being discussed.
