Statement: Grain Growers of Canada comment on continued delays to Bill C-49

 
“Grain farmers across Canada are disappointed that Bill C-49 was not passed this week.
 
This Bill has been through significant debate and it is time that MPs and Senators allow Bill C-49 to pass once and for all. It is essential that when the House comes back, partisan politics and procedural tactics are put aside and Parliamentarians do what is best for grain farmers by passing C-49.”
