Health committee  I can't speak specifically to the YESP. I know that here in my province we have a great program that's been offered by our provincial government, which I think has been well accessed by primary producers.

Health committee  I do not have that number, but I will get it for you, Mr. Blois.

Health committee  I don't know.

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

Health committee  I believe the channels are switched because I'm hearing only the French.

Health committee  Okay, the question is the same as it's been. It's difficult to forecast what the food supply is going to look like in the summer and in the fall. A great deal of the uncertainty has to do with access to labour. There's also great uncertainty with regard to how COVID is going to

Health committee  That's a great question. I don't know the total amount because we continue to see market volatility. As producers we're uncertain where we're going to be able to sell and where we're not. Overall, we continue to put crops in the ground, raise animals, and hope we're going to be
