this landmark trade agreement by decision makers,” said APAS President Todd Lewis.

“Our producers are the most trade dependent in Canada, and we are ready to take
advantage of new market opportunities in the Pacific region. This is good news for our
producers and rural communities,” Lewis concluded.
