Madam Speaker, I listened with great interest to the speech made by the member for Yukon. I am still an active farmer. What happens if farmers do find an endangered species on their farm? What type of compensation will be in place for them so they will not have to resort to what I refer to as the three s 's: shoot, shovel and shut up? Could the member tell us what type of compensation package would be available?
In the House of Commons on February 28th, 2001. See this statement in context.
