Madam Speaker, I listened carefully to my colleague's speech. However, there is one thing that he did not mention, and that is the “Agri-vert”, or agri-green, program. We are very disappointed. Agriculture is very important in my riding of Laurentides—Labelle and during the pandemic we realized just how valuable our farmers really are. People on the ground wanted to see a better agri-green program. I would like the member to explain why the government planned for other types of investments in its budget rather than giving farmers what they wanted.

Madam Speaker, the government started out by saying that now is not the time to talk about health transfers, yet the budget it presented seems more like a postpandemic budget. Considering that Quebec and the provinces are demanding an unconditional transfer and considering that my colleague is quite familiar with the situation in Quebec, what does he think about the proposal to hold a health summit, given that we are clearly in the postpandemic period.
