Canada's Agriculture Minister is hoping that next year is a better one for farmers.

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."
