FVGC Welcomes Throne Speech recognition of the importance of agriculture and need to protect it

OTTAWA, ON  – “Today’s Speech from the Throne sends an encouraging signal to Canada’s fruit and vegetable growers and Canada’s agricultural sector as a whole.

The recognition of the central role of agriculture in defining Canada’s identity and the need to protect it at a time of unprecedented shocks is welcome.

Fruit and Vegetable Growers of Canada (FVGC) is pleased to see the role of those who provide Canadians with access to fresh, healthy, and quality food recognized, and we look forward to working with the Government and all Members of Parliament to translate this recognition into policies that support growers and safeguard the future of our sector.”
