Mr. Chair, I suppose that was a question. I do not know about the loan loss program, but I would say the government is a dead loss many times, certainly on this issue.
I want to argue that not only has it failed on the program side, it has completely and utterly failed when it comes to the issue of getting that border open again. I cannot believe that member and other members have defended a colleague across the way who has gone out of her way to antagonize our biggest trading partner over and over again. Where is the Prime Minister on this? Why is he not saying to his MPs that when they open their mouths, they have an obligation not just to represent their constituents. They have an obligation to this country.
The government so often has failed our country when it comes to making that message clear. Who is paying for it today? Thousands and thousands of beef producers across the country. It is shameful that the government has not done a better job of reeling in its own members.
