Mr. Speaker, it is a bit rich to listen to the Conservatives talk about Canadian farmers and agri-food businesses, when they had their chance in April 2025 and had absolutely nothing in their platform for Canadian farmers or agri-food businesses.
We know the price of food is a major issue in this country. That is why we have introduced the groceries and essentials rebate; 12.6 million Canadians will benefit, with up to $1,900 a year. We are also introducing the national food security strategy. This is an opportunity to look at the systemic aspects of food: what we can do to help support farmers and agri-food businesses. It will not be cutting the industrial carbon price; that is not a real plan.
