Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Agriculture is not involved in the NAFTA and TPP negotiations, and supply management is being pummelled. Yesterday, the parliamentary secretary spread concern in the agriculture sector by refusing to confirm that supply management is excluded from the TPP. Meanwhile, the United States is getting more aggressive in demanding an end to supply management.
Did the Prime Minister trade away supply management to make up for his insulting attitude towards the leaders of the 10 other TPP partners?
Dairy, egg, and poultry producers want answers, not excuses.
