Mr. Speaker, last week I asked the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food for a firm commitment on aid for Canada's farmers, in particular those drought stricken farmers in my riding of West Nova. His reply was to wait until he met with his provincial counterparts on November 4.
Today the parliamentary secretary said that the deputy ministers are meeting to discuss the issue.
How much longer will our farmers have to wait before the government steps in with some kind of emergency relief?
