I spoke with the US Ambassador to Canada and Parliamentary Secretary to the PM about the serious challenges facing the mold making industry in #CKL last week. It is vital that residents of our region have a voice in Ottawa that can have these conservations face to face.

Canada is the only G20 country in a recession after a decade of Liberal policies. Investment is leaving & Canada's agri-food sector is losing ground. Yet the govt continue to ignore the broader trend. Check out the CFIB graphic in this video. It tells the real story.

Toured the Halifax Grain Elevator last week! This facility is the last ocean elevator in Atlantic Canada and a key gateway for Canadian exports like soybeans and wood pellets. With 140k tonnes of storage and the deepest berths on the East Coast, it’s a vital asset for exports!

A technical recession is still a recession when Canadians feel it in their paycheques, grocery bills, and household budgets. Instead of debating definitions, it's time for the Liberals to recognize the economic reality facing Canadians and present a plan to reverse it.

Closing the Nappan Research Farm after more than a century of service, along with six other agricultural research sites, threatens innovation, productivity, and food security. Canadian farmers depend on this research. Reverse these closures.

Farmers with land in the path of the ALTO high speed rail came to Ottawa to raise their unequivocal “NO” to the project! They cited not only the irreparable harm it would do to the surrounding agricultural land, but also the astronomical price tag. Remember the Mirabel failure?

Conservative MPs call on the Minister of AAFC to immediately halt and reverse the Liberal govt's decision to close seven AAFC research & development centres & farm sites, which is impacting Canada’s food security and will harm Canada’s food production for years to come.
