For all farmers. This is a topic I feel all should be more informed about. This simple change in policy would bring so much more grain market data transparency to you for better marketing decisions. For example maybe your canola basis for new crop wouldn’t be -60. Maybe wheat basis levels wouldn’t widen out with every futures rally.
Canada may be one of the world’s largest agricultural exporters, but grain producers are operating at a major market intelligence disadvantage. An Export Sales Reporting program can level the playing field making Canada more competitive. See how we do it: saskoilseeds.com/export-sale…

2026 marks the 25th anniversary of Grain Growers of Canada, an important agricultural organization that brings together national, provincial, and regional member organizations from across the country, representing a unified voice for the Canadian grains sector. I was pleased to make a statement in the @SenateCA earlier today to celebrate this exciting milestone @GrainGrowers! Watch my statement here: youtu.be/3JeSgRBUAao#Agricul… #CdnPoli

Keep your four-way flashing lights OFF when you are driving with traffic, even if the driving conditions are less than ideal. But always drive with your full headlighting and tail lighting systems turned on - day and night. #BeSeen
You can use your four-way way flashing lights momentarily if you're coming to a sudden and unexpected slow down or stop on the highway.
Only use four-ways continously when your vehicle IS the hazard. For example, stopped and blocking a live lane. ^ks – at Innisfil, Ontario

SaskOilseeds Market Development Manager took in some “food for thought” at @FoodIntegrityCA’s “Fear, Facts, and Food: The Fight for Trust” conference.
The main topic of conversation was how “fear-fluencing”, the spread of fear through misinformation, is shaping perceptions of food, health, and sustainability.

Can you even imagine a pre-tomato Italy?! Weird to think that the entire history of the Roman Empire was tomato-free. 🍅 🇮🇹 🚫
