Madam Chair, the member opposite brings up Bill C-29 and he makes a good point that it was Shanghaied at committee. I can assure members that we are very serious about getting this through, ensuring that $1 billion in new credit, especially for new, beginning farmers, gets out there. We have been told that some new farmers in Quebec want to take advantage of this.
I am not sure what bus the member opposite is talking about. I do not remember being on a bus during the election at all, let alone being on a bus in Quebec. However, the point I made about the Bloc is that those members run hot and cold on certain issues, but at the end of the day, they have not supported the budget which would flow the money and make it accessible to Levinoff-Colbex and everybody else across the country.
Certainly we are aware of the situation at Levinoff-Colbex and we are working with it. It would have been a lot easier to get that job done earlier if members of the Bloc would have supported the budget, got it to committee, got the job done, instead of always being an anchor. I wish they would get out in front and help us every once in a while.
