Madam Speaker, first of all, I want to thank my colleague, the hon. member for Frontenac, for putting forward this opposition motion on agriculture. This is an extremely important day for all farmers in Quebec and across Canada.
I see that there are not many members across the way. They may not come from another planet, but I do not know where they come from.
People have been hit very hard by the budget. My colleague from Frontenac said earlier that none of the farmers he has spoken to was happy with the budget.
They claim that the budget is acceptable, that it is a good budget. I do not understand where these members come from.
