Thank you, Chair.
In announcing the name change of the Pest Management Regulatory Agency to the Pesticides Regulatory Directorate, your department used the motto “different name, same spirit”. That doesn't instill much confidence in me or the stakeholders and businesses that will be interacting with your agency going forward.
If nothing has changed internally except the name, when will the mandate eventually change? What measures are you putting in place to change the activist culture that's festered within your agency and made it harder for Canadian businesses to operate, grow and succeed in this country?
