Mr. Speaker, it was because we believed there were problems that we decided to invest more money on top of the money we invested a year ago and the year before.
Three years in a row we have increased the contribution of the federal government to this problem. We are very proud of it because we know there is a problem.
Some would like us to do more than that but we are doing much more than what they do in New Zealand and Australia. There is a war between the United States and the Europeans. We said a long time ago that Canada could not afford to go as far as the Americans in terms of subsidies.
