Mr. Speaker, I have a question for the hon. member for Palliser. He talked about the NISA program and how the minister of agriculture basically held it up as being the be-all and end-all of the farm crisis. Today we heard the Leader of the Opposition suggest that support mechanisms should not be put in place but that it should be long term tax breaks.
Could the member for Palliser give me some indication as to what his party would actually like to see with respect to farm support programs? Does he have any idea how they should be delivered to agriculturalists or producers that will have some difficulty putting crops in this coming spring season?
