Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Trois-Rivières for his question.
We should certainly be proud of Canada’s supply management system. When we look at farming and uncertainty in other countries, it scares us. That should make us feel even more like proclaiming loud and clear that it is important to defend our supply management system, not only in our trade agreements but especially at the border.
As a member representing a rural area with 37 municipalities and several hundred dairy farmers and poultry producers, I recognize the importance of our supply management system. It is important to take action.
The government has been holding consultations for 30 days, and it has been in power for seven months. Everyone agrees that the supply management system must be protected.
The solution is simple: the Liberal government must stand up to the Americans and stop the importation of diafiltered milk into Canada.
