Mr. Speaker, that is not the message I am getting from farmers across Canada. Things are not getting better.
In Ontario, there are calls to include risk management in our assistance programs. In the west, farmers are saying that the time has come to do a comprehensive study of rail rates to ensure the transparency of the two major rail companies.
And in British Columbia, apple producers are threatened by the dumping of American apples in Canada.
When will the minister finally listen to what rural Canada is saying?
