Thank you for being here.
I was born and raised on a beef farm in my riding of Peterborough. I took that tradition on in the last few years with my husband and my young family. We've experienced a significant drought in central Ontario and across Canada, which has been a huge stress. I just wanted to give a little background. My passion for agriculture runs deep.
I guess my question for you today is this: How is the department coordinating with Global Affairs Canada and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada to mitigate the financial impacts of tariffs on affected sectors?
