As I mentioned in my opening remarks, personally, I don't wish to comment on the effectiveness of the programs. However, the few times we've had such discussions with producers, we've observed that it's truly important for programs to be flexible and innovative.
Some programs are rigid and don't allow for innovation. Others aren't even adapted yet to new planting dates, for example. It's not necessary to make major changes to adjust the programs so that they align with reality in light of climate change in Quebec, particularly in the north. We know that the further north we go, the faster the climate changes. So, yes, the programs need to adapt to these more frequent and rapid changes.
Producers' responsiveness is also linked to the support they receive from trained advisers. We can even consider university and technical curricula, which need to be revised to ensure that the agronomists and technicians who support producers have better training and a better understanding.
In Quebec, we're fortunate to have a number of projects that are strong and inspiring for Canada as a whole. Perhaps we should draw a little more inspiration from them to accelerate the adoption of climate change adaptation and emissions reduction practices—of course if we also want to contribute to reducing emissions.
