Subsidies for agricultural production are part of food sovereignty. Every nation, every country, protects their agriculture. In the case of supply management products, such as milk, Canada has decided to implement a system that protects its borders and that provides producers with guaranteed income directly from the market.
The U.S. has another system. They are in a free market and follow the world price. However, they have the Farm Bill that supports producers, who would otherwise not be able to survive. We in Canada have the supply management system, and the Americans have another system. We need to have the same system to be able to trade with them. That's the foundation of our supply management system. That is why we are constantly protecting it and need borders.
I mentioned diafiltered milk. It is certainly complicated, but the filtration process did not exist when the first agreements were reached. The U.S. developed it so that it could cross the borders and replace the proteins produced by Canadian dairy farmers.
Ms. Bouchard, would you like to add anything?
