Agriculture committee  If I could, I just think I should be obligated to do that to really thank you for offering this opportunity here today. I really think the worth of agriculture is in perception. We support it if we think it's valuable. One thing that hits me is when we have 50% of our farm families advising the next generation not to be involved in agriculture, I think we're on the wrong track.

Agriculture committee  That's our group. Nobody's short of words. Thank you very much for the opportunity to be here today. We do appreciate that request. This is Canada's Outstanding Young Farmers Program, and it's a program that first identifies then celebrates and honours young farm families from across Canada, literally from coast to coast and from all disciplines of agriculture.
