Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for coming here today.
As a little bit of a preamble, we were talking in the previous committee meeting about dumping raw sewage into the rivers and lakes and the impacts of that. Then, of course, the Liberals, NDP and Bloc shut down that discussion. That's the preface to where we start this conversation today.
My first question is for Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada and Mr. Norris.
There was mention of the importance of water quality for agriculture. Is the dumping of raw sewage impacting water quality for agriculture?
