Mr. Speaker, I was with the Prime Minister in Korea when we had the bilateral with President Xi. It is the first time in eight years that that has happened. It is an important step in resolving the issues the member mentioned.
The Conservatives need to pick a lane. I have heard consistently, including from the member for Simcoe North, that Canada should not be engaging with China, that we should not be having discussions. Now this member from the Conservative benches stands up to say we should be doing more to engage with China. The Conservatives really need to determine what lane they are going to pick.
Our lane is very clear. We believe we can recalibrate the relationship in a pragmatic and constructive way. We are undertaking that work. That is the work we will do for farmers across the country.
Speaking of farmers, I would ask the member to go back to look at his platform from April. There was not one single word about Canadian farmers in what the Conservatives promised in their platform. It is shameful.
