He also sees foreign trade as an issue.
 
He says there remains some uncertainty about the U.S. attitude towards the North American Trade Agreement.
 
He says Saskatchewan will have to make the case that NAFTA is good for both the U.S. and Canada.
 
He also expects ratification of the Canada-European trade deal shortly in the European Union.

It's summertime in Minnesota as a yellow Air Tractor agricultural application aircraft -- a crop duster -- responds to the control inputs of its pilot in a low-altitude dance just above the tops of the cornstalks. Enjoy! And we found a Bell 206 Long Ranger spray helicopter perched on a support truck at the edge of the cornfields, and launching from there. In our video, you can occasionally hear the rotor sounds of the crop-dusting helicopter as we see the yellow Air Tractor in a nearby field.
