I enjoyed the presentation. I’m wondering if the member can elaborate a little bit, based upon research he’s done or done in conjunction with his daughter, about food waste—big subject, and it’s what I plan to talk about this afternoon. It’s a very important debate. Food waste is something that is top of mind for growers in our region. They’re trying to think about more of a circular approach to how they deal with produce that’s not possible to sell on the marketplace for use in animals. I’m just wondering if the member has any thoughts on that.

Thank you to the members opposite for their comments on the subject of food waste. It’s a very interesting topic, and I think there are a lot of things that can be done.

I wonder if the member from Ottawa Centre is aware of Leket Israel, which has a great model for recycling food and making sure food gets redistributed to those who need it—and has been studied, has a very successful model which could be implemented in other places.
