Mr. Speaker, last year, the Minister of Foreign Affairs promised compensation for Canadian dairy workers after three successive free trade deals with thousands of Canadian jobs at risk.
While budget 2019 promised compensation for dairy farmers, dairy processors who employ 24,000 in Canadian rural communities received nothing. Not $1 was allocated for dairy processors to compensate them for economic harm stemming from these free trade agreements.
When will the Liberals deliver on their promise to fairly compensate Canadian dairy processors?
