Hit pause on the PMRA transformation! While Canada is seized with an existential threat from our largest trading partner, the PMRA is adding layers of red tape and costs that threaten the competitiveness of Canadian farmers. Add your name today!👇 nwmd.social/s/copylink/6Qm…

François-Philippe Champagne (FPC) 🇨🇦 What are you going to do to compensate the Canadian farmers that are being devastated by Chinese counter-tariffs? You cannot expect us to pay the bill for your trade war. You cannot protect one industry while crippling another.

Who started this tariff war with China? Not farmers. Who's paying the price? Farmers. We cannot be expected to borrow our way out of this. Fighting a tariff war on two fronts - with superpowers - is folly. Either drop the tariffs. Or support farmers directly.

Grain farmers are essential to Canada’s economy, but rising costs, trade uncertainty, and unfair regulations are holding them back. It’s time for a government that works with farmers. Send a letter today: VoteForGrain.ca

Great news. Thank you Manitoba Government for investing in the future of agriculture. Cereals Canada's Gate project will ensure Canadian farmers will continue to prove we grow the best cereals in the world.

The FS podcast by Shane Parrish is one of my absolute favorites. He is one of the best interviewers I've heard. This podcast he recorded with Pierre Poilievre is simply excellent. Every Canadian needs to listen in on this conversation. youtu.be/hS-xso4Nmo4?si…

This is not the right path for Canada. My children - and theirs - shouldn't have to pay for vote buying. Cast your vote carefully.

Danielle Smith just delivered a historic speech. Canada unity and hope for the future. This is in my opinion the best speech I’ve ever heard from a Canadian politician I’ve cut just the beginning, but left the bulk of the speech. 👏 way to GO Danielle Smith

"I'm determined to make a difference." New Ag Minister Heath MacDonald, in his interview on RealAgriculture, said a lot of the right things: a willingness to learn, working with provincial ag ministers, building relationships with our trading partners, reducing the regulatory

Very frustrating and disappointing to see the minimal representation of the west in the new Ag Committee. Western Canada needs more than 1 of the 10 seats on such an important committee. realagriculture.com/2025/06/major-…
