Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to welcome all the witnesses and thank them for their presentations.
In particular, I'd like to thank Mr. Matte, who highlighted a number of critical issues. We've taken careful note of them, so rest assured that we will push for measures to be implemented.
My first questions are for Mr. Caron.
Mr. Caron, thank you for being here. During your presentation, you talked about the problems facing the agricultural sector. Can you describe them in greater detail and tell us how the current support program falls short? You said it wasn't designed to deal with a situation like the COVID‑19 crisis.
Why is it so urgent to take action?
