Canada's Ag Ministers To Meet Virtually Later This Month

Canada's agriculture ministers will meet virtually November 20th and 27th.
 
Agriculture and Agri-Food Minister Marie-Claude Bibeau commented on some of the topics that will be discussed.
 
"Obviously improving AgriStability is a top priority," she said. "We'll have a good conversation on African swine fever. I know we'll talk also about the fees that are now imposed by some big retailers. Always take this opportunity to give an update to our provincial colleagues on the federal responsibilities around international trade, for example, science and innovation."
 
The FPT meeting was postponed twice this year due to COVID-19 and the Saskatchewan election.
