Mr. Speaker, I am very concerned for the future well-being of farm families from coast to coast who are struggling to survive under the weight of increasing input costs as prices for their commodities continue to remain well below the costs of production.
Our grain and oilseed growers in particular need more financial support. They need it delivered quickly, or spring planting could be at risk for many.
I strongly encourage the government to immediately finalize with the provinces and farm groups the improvements needed to ensure agriculture's future.
