Mr. Speaker, Canada's farmers have been hit with blow after blow by the Liberal government.
Last fall's early snowfall left so many crops buried under the snow. Rail strikes and illegal blockades are preventing crops that are in the bins from even getting to the market. The Liberal carbon tax and crumbling trade relationships only compound this crisis.
Advance payments program loans are coming due, but with so many hardships beyond their control, farmers are strapped for cash. Our farmers are in desperate need for more than just empty platitudes.
When will the Prime Minister commit to extending the advance payments program deadline and waiving the interest on its loans?
