Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. I have a great deal of respect for him and I enjoy working with him.
I am fortunate to have the opportunity to give speeches. For example, this evening, I will be speaking before a chamber of commerce in my riding, and several mayors and farmers will be present. When I give a speech, I always say that we are privileged to have farm products on our plates morning, noon and night. Without our farmers to do this important work seven days a week, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, we would not be able to function. I have a great deal of respect for our farmers.
As for the matter my colleague mentioned, we can discuss it together.
