I do not think the hon. member opposite is in any position to decide who my friends are. Mr. Pommainville can decide for himself. He is a distinguished member of the community in Limoges. His father, Armand Pommainville, who is now in his 80s, was one of the presidents of the Russell County Liberal Association. I take this opportunity to thank him for his great work for the Liberal Party.
The hon. member opposite always failed to admit what all Canadians know is true and he should know as well: we have a production cost formula for price adjustment. Also, he failed to respond to the following: why did he claim that dairy producers were in a situation similar to that of grain producers and that dairy producers were being dealt with unfairly when this is not the case?
We know full well that there is a production cost formula in place, and that there is no comparison with Western grain producers, who are loosing 100 per cent of their subsidies, which is a much higher percentage. Finally, does the hon. member not know that corn producers in his region for example, as well as many other grain producers in Eastern Canada, were not all that crazy about the Crow's Nest agreement?
