Bibeau Outlines Priorities For 2020

Canada's Agriculture Minister is hoping that next year is a better one for farmers.
 
Marie-Claude Bibeau outlined some of her top priorities heading into 2020.
 
"Regaining access to China is definitely one," she said. "Food policy is something else that I look forward to implement. There are different priorities within the food policy, like local food infrastructure, food waste, promoting Canadian products."
 
Bibeau talked more about the China/canola situation.
 
"We have started the process at the World Trade Organization (WTO) and obviously our new Ambassador Dominic Barton is working very hard from his part, and we are also doubling down on our efforts to export to other markets as well."

Video: Dream Projects Made Real | BX Summer Contest Winner Stories



Three women. Three properties. Three summers that changed everything.

Meet the 2025 Kubota BX Summer Contest winners — and watch what happened when their biggest plans finally had the power to match them.

Akesh transformed her 9.8-acre property in just 3 months — clearing a historic barn, building a cottage garden, and growing vegetable beds for her family. Kathleen rebuilt her yard from the ground up after the 2023 wildfires devastated her property — creating a space where her children could play and grow again. Teresa reclaimed her family's 97-acre Ontario farm — moving topsoil, restoring fields, and honouring her mother's memory one season at a time.

Three dream projects. Three stories of vision, resilience, and hard work. One unforgettable summer with a Kubota BX.

"The BX made everything happen so quick." — Akesh "I feel like I can make a huge difference." — Kathleen "It's a dream come true. The answer to my prayers." — Teresa
