Mr. Speaker, this past week I was in western Canada listening to farmers share their experiences during this very difficult period in their lives in the farm income crisis. In some cases they said to me that they want a government to listen. They want a government to put into place the necessary programs to make them able to go back to the land next spring.
The minister of agriculture still does not have in principle an agreement from his cabinet colleagues. When will the Government of Canada find the political will to support our agriculture industry before it is too late?
