2026 marks the 25th anniversary of Grain Growers of Canada, an important agricultural organization that brings together national, provincial, and regional member organizations from across the country, representing a unified voice for the Canadian grains sector. I was pleased to make a statement in the @SenateCA earlier today to celebrate this exciting milestone @GrainGrowers! Watch my statement here: youtu.be/3JeSgRBUAao#Agricul… #CdnPoli

The Liberals have SHUT DOWN the 119 year old Lacombe Research and Development Centre WITHOUT consultation and WITHOUT proper assessment of the impact on Alberta’s agricultural sector.
Conservatives will continue to fight for Canada’s hardworking farmers, ranching families, individual entrepreneurs, investors, researchers, service companies and local agricultural businesses, just as we always have.

#Budget2025 presents highs and lows for Canadian grain farmers.
Reversing the capital gains tax increase and investing in infrastructure and trade are positive steps.
No inclusion of extended interswitching and cuts at AAFC are concerning.

Reversing the capital gains tax increase gives farm families certainty, but #Budget2025 leaves uncertainty in rail competitiveness and research.

Tariffs in key markets are impacting Canada’s pulse trade. Pulse Canada is pressing for solutions that keep product moving and markets open. Read the October edition of Pulse Insider for the latest market update: hubs.la/Q03R8FbN0 #cdnag #cdnpulse

India has now placed 30% tariffs on Canadian peas.
That’s on top of the 100% tariffs already in place from China.
That means 80% of Canadian peas face tariffs worldwide.
It seems every time Mark Carney travels abroad, Canadian farmers pay the price.
