Context: House Hansard - 188 - May/1/23
Mr. Yves Perron (Berthier—Maskinongé, BQ)
Mr. Speaker, on behalf of all the egg farming families of Berthier—Maskinongé and Quebec, I would like to congratulate the Egg Farmers of Canada on its 50th anniversary. I would also like to call attention to its commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, as our egg farmers join the fight against climate change. Our supply management system ensures that farmers have the income and capacity they need to reinvest in their operation when our market grows. It also promotes land use and food resilience. The more family farms there are, the more villages will flourish. For the Egg Farmers of Canada, this 50th anniversary is a chance to spotlight innovative practices and effective management. To celebrate this anniversary, let us protect supply management by passing Bill C‑282. No gift could be more welcome. Long live the Egg Farmers of Canada, and long live supply management.
