Thank you very much.
First I'd like to welcome you and thank you for being here today.
In view of the fact that I represent a quite rural riding, I'm very sensitive to your testimony, Ms. Fyfe. In recent years, we've seen a lot of farms and small farms disappear, particularly in our regions. What I appreciated or what I thought was remarkable was when you told us that the rural world is where you think we find our identity. That really moves me very much.
You also said you have five children.
A little earlier, you showed us a report. Perhaps I wasn't paying attention. Is that the report on Canadian agricultural policy that you showed us earlier and that you have in your possession?
The National Farmers Union, I believe, has carried out a research project on Canadian agricultural policy entitled “Farm Women and Canadian Agricultural Policy”. Does that report contain any recommendations to promote agricultural succession? When I say promote, I mean finding incentives to make youths want to take over the farm.
You have five children. Will one of your five children take over the farm?
