Leslyn Lewis Conservative Haldimand—Norfolk, ON

Mr. Speaker, in Haldimand—Norfolk, beef farming is a way of life and a significant contributor to our local economy.

Can the government explain to the farmers in Haldimand—Norfolk and throughout Canada why their world-class beef still cannot access the U.K. markets like it could before?
