Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Finance, who never thinks about farmers or consults them. With help from the Bloc Québécois, she found a new way to undermine our farming sector. This new tax increase on capital gains will jeopardize the retirements and succession plans of our farming families. The president of the UPA, Martin Caron, wrote the minister a letter on June 6. It was a heartfelt plea denouncing this situation. Will she make a promise today that no farmer will lose their retirement because of this tax increase?
