Farmers aren't really looking for handouts. They're looking for a trade deal. I know that in my area, where I farm, we're directly north of the U.S. border with the same climate and the same soil types, yet they're not paying the industrial carbon tax. That's just one measure where we're putting ourselves at an unfair disadvantage. It's really important that we resolve these trade issues very quickly because we're already trying to play on the global markets with one hand tied behind our back.
How quickly do you think we can engage directly with China, and can you tell us who you're engaging with?
