It appears he’ll remain part of Canada’s ag industry
Kyle Larkin is moving on from his time as the executive director of Grain Growers of Canada (GGC).
“December marks my last month with the organization,” he said in a Dec. 2 LinkedIn post. “Leading GGC has been the best experience of my career.”
Larkin joined GGC in July 2023 bringing experience in government relations, public relations, and politics.
He used that experience to help GGC advocate on behalf of grain farmers.
“Together, we have accomplished much for Canada’s 70,000 grain farmers,” he said in his LinkedIn message.
This included helping secure a full reversal of the capital gains tax increase, pushing for the passage of Bill C-234, and supporting Bills C-244 and C-294 to allow farmers to repair their own machinery.
Though he’s leaving GGC, it appears Larkin’s next landing spot will include Canadian ag.
“Thankfully, I won’t be moving far and look forward to continuing to work with you all in building and growing Canada’s agriculture sector. See you in 2026!” he wrote.
Larkin’s departure means GGC is actively seeking a replacement.
The ideal candidate should “have a background in association management, government relations, and agriculture policy and will have held a comparable role for a similar organization,” the job posting says.
