Kevin Lamoureux Liberal
“I want to work together on committees. Helping our food and farming businesses grow, including selling to more countries, is an important topic to work on.”
“Mr. Speaker, I acknowledge the member is extending his hand in collaboration. I think some standing committees can be very effective. I find that a lot depends on the different personalities and subject matters. The member raised the issue of agri-food. It was not that long ago I was in the Philippines. We were talking about an expansion where an office could be established to look at dozens of countries and how we could expand. How we can enhance our agri-food system is a wonderful topic to talk about. I look forward to the member’s contributions at the standing committee level, and I hope there will be a higher sense of collaboration going forward.”
