Mr. Speaker, it was our motion on agriculture that we debated in the House not long ago. Perhaps he has had a little memory loss.
It is easier to arrest a farmer in Manitoba than to challenge the big U.S. department of agriculture. It is easier for the government to increase user fees and fertilizer taxes in Saskatchewan than it is to talk to Americans and Europeans about lowering their subsidies.
Here is the problem. Foreign subsidies are too high and Canadian taxes are too high. Why does the government not admit that its heavy handed tax collectors and the light weight ministers abroad that will not tackle this issue are the real problem?
