Agriculture committee  Are you talking about the CFIA, or are you talking about the government, when we made the decision?

Agriculture committee  I don't understand the question. Why would the CFIA have consulted the stakeholders? There's something that I don't get in your question. I'm sorry.

Agriculture committee  As you know, we have already provided all of the compensation for the two free trade agreements with the European Union and the CPTPP. Only the CUSMA was left. There is $1.7 billion that I have announced for CUSMA. The amount of $1.2 billion will go to the dairy farmers in the sa

I've learned in politics that giving a date is very risky. I acknowledge this is in my mandate letter, and we will move forward and w

Agriculture committee  I hear you. I hear you.

Agriculture committee  Thank you. On the first question around the clean technology program, yes, I would say we received at least five times more demands, as a round number, than we could approve in the first round. In the last budget we got an increase. We have a total of $495 million for the prog
