Alberta Grains is congratulating Prime Minister Mark Carney, the Liberal Party, and all newly elected MPs—but they’re not wasting any time getting to the point: grain farmers need action.
“As the unified voice for Alberta’s wheat and barley farmers, Alberta Grains is eager to collaborate with the incoming federal government and all elected members of Parliament to enhance the competitiveness, growth and long-term viability of grain farming across the province,” said Tara Sawyer, chair of Alberta Grains. “We look forward to working closely with key officials to ensure agriculture remains a national priority, with policies that allow Alberta’s grain farmers to thrive.”
Among Alberta Grains’ top federal priorities are continued growth and access to global markets, including diplomacy to reduce trade barriers such as the recent tariff threats imposed by the United States. Alberta Grains will look to the new Liberal government to ensure grain farmers retain a competitive advantage in sustainably growing high-quality grains through federal investments and support in research and innovation.
