I had requested for this Statement in early October and in spite of following it up with the Committee Chair and other Members, I have not been able to get any response from them. I can see hon. Gichigi is here and he can bear witness that I have really pursued their Committee on this matter. So, I would kindly request that we put this matter before a special Committee given that the farm workers were sent on compulsory leave last week."}
