The Canadian Cattle Association (CCA) and the National Cattle Feeders’ Association (NCFA) are throwing their support behind a new bill being introduced by the federal government.
On Wednesday, Liberal MP Kody Blois introduced Bill C-359 which would amend the Feeds Act, the Seeds Act, and the Pest Control Products Act.
Both organizations say this will, as it currently reads, reduce regulatory barriers that limit the ag sector’s economic growth potential and continued ability to produce food sustainably.
“We’re pleased to see the innovative principles of Bill C-359 as it aims to reduce regulatory burdens for farmers and ranchers and ensure our global competitiveness,” said Nathan Phinney, CCA President. “Additional common-sense regulatory changes will help Canadian beef producers sustainably produce more high-quality protein.”
