CGC Determines $3.7 Million Owed To Eligible Producers

Mar 05, 2021

The Canadian Grain Commission reports all eligible producers who were not paid for grain delivered to Canpulse Foods Ltd. and Global Grain Canada Ltd. will be fully compensated through the CGC's Safeguards for Grain Farmers Program.

The CGC had suspended the licences of Canpulse Foods, Global Grain Canada and their parent company Globeways Canada Inc. on October 31, 2020 after it was determined they could not provide security as outlined in their licence.

The companies were then placed into receivership and producers owed money for deliveries were able to file claims with the CGC.

After a review of individual producer claims, it was determined that there were 40 eligible claims involving Canpulse Foods Ltd. totalling over $3 million and 13 eligible claims for Global Grain Canada Ltd worth about $700,000.

All eligible claims are fully covered by the security posted by Canpulse Foods Ltd. and Global Grain Canada Ltd.

Video: Learning to Wrench From Dad the Hard Way

Harvest is a week out and the farm picked this week to fall apart. The truck needs a battery, the barn curtain's got a problem, and the corn and beans are telling us we're out of time to get it all fixed.

So it's a full day of wrenching. Tork supervises while I get the truck back running, then we're out at the hog barn where one rusted up part has the whole curtain system hung up. Ladder work, cable work, and a little dad-and-son disagreement about the right way to do it. We close it out walking the fields, shelling beans and checking corn, because whether everything's fixed or not, harvest starts when harvest starts.
