Ontario Ag Critic Champions Agriculture Survey

Ontario PC’s Call Out to Farmers

By , Farms.com

Ontario PC Critic for Agriculture Ernie Hardeman MPP announced Thursday July 26 the release of a new survey targeted at Ontario farmers. The Ontario PCs want to hear what farmers concerns are and identify the key priority areas for agriculture producers to ensure that Ontario’s agriculture sector remains vibrant.

“I’ve heard a lot from farmers about their concerns that overregulation is preventing the growth of their business,” said Hardeman. “To stay competitive in an ever-changing global economy, farmers must focus on growing top-quality food, not getting caught up in bureaucratic red tape. Through this survey I hope to identify specific regulations that should be reviewed.”

Hardeman hopes that with the feedback from farmers he will be able to hold the current government to account to represent farmers concerns and interests.

The Ontario PCs have a keen interest in rural Ontario as they dominated rural ridings in the last provincial election.

This government continues to ignore problems in rural Ontario,” Hardeman said. “If they are not prepared to protect and support Ontario farmers, I will make sure that our province’s agriculture industry is being properly represented here at Queen’s Park.”

Hardeman would like to encourage farmers to participate in the online survey found on his website www.ErnieHardemanMPP/agriculture .
