Agriculture committee  I'll go back to what I said earlier.

Julie Bissonnette

Agriculture committee  We're talking about a policy that affects the next generation of farmers or the farming community in general.

Julie Bissonnette

Agriculture committee  Thank you. That's a good question. Clearly, the most significant impact is absorbed by start-ups in the initial period, from year zero to year five. We've often talked about the increasing debt load. These farmers are really in this situation right from the start. The ideal appr
