Mr. Speaker, when this minister left the farm, I would say he also left farmers behind.
Farm incomes in Canada have dropped 46% in the last year. We have seen user fees go up 28% in the last three years because of the finance minister and the agriculture minister. We see foreign subsidies going up. We see taxes going up.
When is the ag minister going to get tough with the Europeans and with the finance minister and make sure that those European subsidies start to go down and that Canadian taxes go down for farmers?
