Mr. Speaker, of course food safety for Canadians is the top priority of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. As a government, since 2006, we have increased its budgetary capacity by some 20% and we continue to add to its capacity in the front line of food inspection. We continue to do that, despite the opposition members constantly voting down those budgetary proposals. That is unfortunate.
