June 17th, 2020Committee meeting

Mary Robinson

Health committee  To speak to the larger issue of BRM, because it is broken in the view of most Canadian producers, the participation levels have certainly dropped off to a staggering level. Many people just don't have confidence that the program is going to fulfill their needs, so they just simpl

Mary Robinson

Health committee  I don't believe there have been any changes to BRM in regard to the commodities that do not qualify for business risk management. Does that answer your question?
