Ontario’s grain farmers produce nearly 16 million tonnes of grain Canadians rely on every year, ensuring a stable supply of the barley, corn, oats, soybeans, and wheat that keep essential foods like cereal, bread, meat, pasta, baby food, and flour home grown.
Until recently, Canada relied on its friendly relationship with the U.S. to import key supplies, like fertilizer, farming machinery, and seed needed to grow those crops. But with that trade relationship compromised, Canada needs to prioritize and protect the grain supply chains and systems we have right here at home.
In the U.S., congress is preparing to pass a Bill that would protect their farmers from this volatility and tight margins, giving them the certainty and stability they need to care for their crops. If Canada is going to protect its own supply chains, keep our grain production affordable, and keep our Canadian farmers farming, we need our government ensure a level playing field for our grain farmers.
Protect grain farmers and consumers from escalating prices and market volatility by providing 60% funding for the programs designed to help farmers manage production risk + raise the Advance Payments Program funding from $250,000 to $350,000 permanently.
Return agriculture and agrifood funding to business risk management programs + make Canadian business risk management programs equivalent to those in the U.S.
Direct stimulus funding to protect domestic processing, create new markets + reinstate the Capital Cost Allowance and Accelerated Investment Incentive Program.
To ensure that Canadian farmers can continue to grow the grains that keep our supply chains intact and our grain production affordable, we need the government to strengthen our domestic supply chains and provide certainty and stability for Canadian grain farmers.
