Grain commission takes away the license of a Saskatchewan company

Jul 25, 2024

The Canadian Grain Commission (CGC) has voided the grain dealer license of a Saskatoon, Sask. company effective today.

Grain farmers in Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Alberta who delivered grain to LSM Grain Ltd. may be owed money by this company.

When a licensed grain company fails to pay grain farmers, the CGC Safeguards for Grain Farmers Program uses the company’s security to pay them if their claim is eligible.

Any Canadian grain farmers who are owed money by LSM Grain should contact the commission immediately by emailing compliance-conformite@grainscanada.gc.ca or by calling 1-800-853-6705 or 204-984-0506.
