CGC Determines $3.7 Million Owed To Eligible Producers

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.
