Conservative Trade Critic Travelling The Prairies

 
Conservative Trade Critic Gerry Ritz spending some time on the road touring the prairies and talking with producers about the challenges they're facing.
 
He says trade rules, provincially and internationally are a labyrinth of dead ends and blind alleys.
 
"There are success stories and we can gain a lot from them," he said. "Governments learn from that as well and start to offer programming. Governments love to take credit for the success but in the end, it's always business to business that actually makes it happen." 
 
Ritz says when he was Agriculture Minister, they put together value chain round tables where people could share their mentoring stories.
 
During his tour he also says he's heard complaints from some about some of the agriculture boards and commissions.
