Mr. Speaker, on behalf of all farmers, happy Valentine's Day.
Let me just say that this is a record crop year in Canada. Our farmers seeded over 2 million additional acres and they have produced over 20 million more tonnes of grain than in the past. The minister has been very proactive on this file, meeting with all stakeholders on multiple occasions in order to find both mid-term and long-term solutions.
We are reacting to this problem, and farmers know that we are engaged in their best interests.
