Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Agriculture.
By never getting beyond grand speeches and promises, the federal government is sentencing to death the only French language veterinary school in North America. The school is in danger of having its certification revoked by the American Association of Veterinary Medicine, unless the federal government comes up with funding.
Does the minister realize that, to practice their profession in Quebec and in Canada, veterinarians must graduate from a school certified by this association and that, consequently, if he does not act soon, the school is doomed?
