Mr. Speaker, I must also admit that I hold my colleague from Mirabel in very high regard. What is more, he is looking out for me today. He told me not to eat my whole dessert and to watch my sugar intake. We look out for one another here, and these are moments that people back home do not get to see.
In response to my colleague, I would say this: For the farmer who was paying $1,000 last year and is paying $2,000 this year, what matters is not where the five cents from the tax is going. What matters to that farmer is that this is costing him twice as much out of his own pocket and he does not have enough income to keep going. That is what worries him.
