Mr. Speaker, I guess the answer is best said in the words of hog producers themselves.
Curtiss Littlejohn, the Ontario pork producers' representative, said, “These three programs provide options and choices for producers and ultimately will help to right-size the industry”.
The president of the Canadian Pork Council said, “We think it's going to make a huge difference”.
Producers themselves are saying that this is the right way to go. I wish the member for Malpeque would get on board.
