Mr. Speaker, this government is ignoring the problems facing farmers. The Speech from the Throne did not contain a single word, let alone a paragraph, about agriculture. The Liberals have banned the words “agriculture”, “farmer”, and “agri-food” from their vocabulary.
Our supply-managed farmers want to know if the trans-Pacific partnership compensation agreement will be honoured.
The Minister of International Trade says she is not bound by the compensation commitment. Can the minister clarify her position?
