Mr. Chair, certainly there is a need for some sort of cash injection. We have already done that. We have made sure that the money that was supposedly pledged as an election gimme by the past government actually cleared the hoops and hurdles and got out to producers. We are well underway with that exercise and we know it is going out.
It is a drop in the bucket. There is a $50 billion farm debt across the country that has accumulated and doubled over the last 10 years. Those guys over there may have gotten the books in order for the federal government but they downloaded on the agricultural sector, the provincial governments, the municipal governments and everything else. We are paying that piper now.
Certainly we have to sit down, scratch our heads and come to terms with getting some sort of cash out. We will do our darndest to do that. No one I have talked to has seen this exemplary set of books the member talked about. I am certainly looking forward to that. If there is a pot of money that has not been squirreled away in a foundation or sent out through some Quebec ad agency, we will make use of it and farmers will benefit.
