Thank you, Wayne. I'm hearing feedback.
Probably what the government could do at this point in time to help farms would be.... Obviously, our big concern was this unfair intergenerational tax situation we had, which has been addressed. We now have an act. As Don has pointed out, it's no longer a bill.
Moving forward, I think what we would like to see are things like a grocer's code of conduct. We would like to see improved BRM and other measures put in place to help strengthen the family farm, so that if people want to avoid amalgamating to try to capture those economies of scale, we can better ensure the margins that farmers are able to capture.
As we've said, it's a capital-intensive investment, which means that much of our money is tied up in land, equipment and buildings. It means that we have a lot of skin in the game. In the value chain of our food system, we seem to be at the tighter end of the margins scale. If government would take a more favourable look at what it does to ensure that farms are on sure footing financially, that would ensure that the next generation would feel confident in taking on that investment of millions of dollars for most family farms.
