Mr. Speaker, as I pointed out early in my comments, oftentimes there are disastrous issues that happen in pocketed areas of Canada. I also mentioned the difficulties which western Canada is experiencing today. There is no question that we have a sliding of price in the commodity market and there is no question that they have had difficult weather to deal with over the last year. However, let us not say that a whole industry is in trouble because of one sector of that industry. What I am trying to say is that Canada's agricultural industry is steadily improving. There are opportunities for young people.
In my riding there is a tremendous number of dollars in agriculture and people are working very well. As a matter of fact, it is difficult to find agricultural workers in my riding. We are looking for more and more workers all the time. There is a strong element of agriculture in the country. The unfortunate part is that colleagues across the way narrow their perspective to look at one very small issue.
I am not underplaying the fact that it is important to those people who are affected; I am underlining the fact that members opposite do not look at the entire picture. They only look at a very narrow section of Canada. They have not spoken of Ontario in the time they have been talking today.
