Mr. Speaker, the minister obviously has a funny way of showing his belief in democracy.
This is another classic case of Liberal democracy. Farmers in western Canada have developed a new special crops act. Yet the Canadian Grain Commission has ordered seed cleaning and special crop elevator operators to pay up to $20,000 in licensing and bonding fees or get shut down by the law.
If the minister believes in democracy, when will he get his bureaucrats under control and get them working for farmers? Why will he not immediately introduce new special crops legislation?
