Mr. Speaker, as Mr. Wildeman knows, talk is cheap from this government.
Country of origin labelling is blatant trade protectionism. It is all the more disappointing coming only days after President Obama's visit. This could spell the end for many Canadian livestock producers. They are already selling off their breeding stock and sacrificing their futures. Canada needs to fight this on all fronts, industry to industry, province to state, administration to administration, MPs to senators and congressmen, Prime Minister to President.
Why is there no full-scale plan to fight country of origin labelling?
