I want to congratulate him and thank him for raising such a timely issue.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4181706\" data-originallang=\"fr\">My riding, Shefford, is 80% agricultural, so a huge part of our economy depends on the agriculture and agri-food sector. We have many dairy and pork producers, as well as vegetable and berry growers.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4181707\" data-originallang=\"fr\">These producers depend a lot on temporary foreign workers. Over the past decade, the Conservatives made it much more difficult for temporary foreign workers to work here, and producers have been complaining about that a great deal.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4181708\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Can the parliamentary secretary comment on this problem, which affects producers?</p>",

Je le f\u00e9licite et le remercie d'avoir soulev\u00e9 ce sujet d'actualit\u00e9.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4181706\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Ma circonscription, Shefford, est agricole \u00e0 80 %. Une bonne partie de l'\u00e9conomie d\u00e9pend donc \u00e9videmment du secteur agricole et agroalimentaire. Il y a plusieurs producteurs laitiers et producteurs de porc, mais il y a aussi des producteurs mara\u00eechers et des producteurs de petits fruits.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4181707\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Ces producteurs d\u00e9pendent beaucoup des travailleurs temporaires \u00e9trangers. Au cours de la derni\u00e8re d\u00e9cennie, les conservateurs ont beaucoup complexifi\u00e9 l'arriv\u00e9e des travailleurs \u00e9trangers chez nous, et les producteurs s'en plaignent grandement.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4181708\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Le secr\u00e9taire parlementaire pourrait-il nous donner son point de vue sur ce probl\u00e8me qui touche les producteurs?</p>"
