Mr. Speaker, once again, it is important to understand that farmers are the first to feel the impacts of the climate crisis. They have always done a great deal to make agriculture as sustainable as possible. We are there to help them improve their practices, to be able to acquire new equipment and to conduct research and innovation in that vein. We are there to support our farmers. While the Conservatives take farmers for granted, we have a vision for their future.

Mr. Speaker, I could name a long list of independent organizations that have publicly attested that our plan is working and that greenhouse gas emissions have begun to decline. I could mention Climate Action Network, the International Institute for Sustainable Development, Equiterre, Ecojustice and Environmental Defence, all of which have publicly stated that our climate change plan is beginning to work. I will be the first to admit that we still have a lot of work to do. However, it is working. The last thing we need is the Conservatives taking us back 20 years in the fight against climate change or when it comes to investments in clean technology.
