Thank you, Madam Chair, and thank you to the witnesses for appearing here today.
I want to speak a little bit about Atlantic Canada because that's the region I represent.
Our region is tightly tied to exports of seafood and agricultural products. With the recent pressures and global uncertainty, certainly the trade disruptions with the U.S., tariff pressures and different unrelated global pressures around the world, are there policies that governments—I'm thinking of provincial governments and the federal government overlapping with those policies—can implement in Atlantic Canada that will make our region more resilient?
We feel those pressures of high oil prices and we feel those pressures of global uncertainty, I think, sooner than other regions of the country.
