Mr. Speaker, our dairy industry is a vital economic driver for Quebec as a whole. It generates 85,000 direct and indirect jobs in every region of Quebec.
Quebec favours family farms, which are often passed down from one generation to the next, but the American system favours industrial farms.
Maintaining supply management is crucial to maintaining Quebec's dairy industry, and that goes for our egg and poultry producers too.
The Bloc Québécois invites everyone who is concerned about our agriculture sector to visit our website or our Facebook page to sign our petition.
It is time for anyone who cares about the future of our regions to stand up and tell the Government of Canada and the Government of Quebec to make sure that supply management is not on the table when NAFTA is reopened.
