CGC Conducting Grain Grading System Review

 
Changes could be on the way for Canada's grain grading system.
 
The Canadian Grain Commission (CGC) is currently reviewing all aspects of its system with the goal of making it more relevant to the needs of the grain sector.
 
Head of Communications Rémi Gosselin talked about a timeline for the review.
 
"It commenced in October and will continue over the next couple of years," he said. "Some changes may occur as soon as this spring, others will take more time because we need to take the time to make science based decisions and do some testing and to be as objective as possible and also to ensure we're not making changes to hastily."

A heated discussion erupts over the logic behind the government's cuts to AAFC research farms in Lacombe, Indian Head, and Quebec City. MPs question why core, decades-old scientific infrastructure is being deemed 'not core' while other, controversial programs were funded. The Deputy Minister is repeatedly pressed for the actual net savings of the decision versus the expense of relocating research programs.
