This week is a reminder that resilient and successful farms depend on the health and safety of the people behind them.

A single week of rail & port disruptions can cost Canada's grain sector up to $540 M - much of it unrecoverable.
There's #TooMuchOnTheLine to accept that risk.

Thank you so much for joining @AlbertaGrains at our event and for your support of our industry.
Every glass of beer begins long before it reaches a table or a toast. At Combine to Craft in Calgary, we reflected on how Alberta farmers—who grow around 50% of Canada’s barley—shape that journey from the very first seed. Their work carries through every stage of the value chain, from field to brewery to consumer. There is real momentum in this value chain, and it’s worth building on.
@AlbertaGrains
Thank you so much for your support of @AlbertaGrains and our industry Minister @DaleNally_AB.
It was great to join Alberta Grains and the Alberta Craft Brewers Association for their “Combine to Craft” event.
Our farmers grow some of the best grains in the world, and our craft brewers turn them into world-class beer.
Nothing says Stampede quite like celebrating the people behind two Alberta favourites.

Pleased to meet with Alberta crop industry leaders today, and chat market access, sustainability, and investing in innovative new technologies to keep the sector competitive. Thank you to Jeff Frost for the warm welcome to his farm in Olds, and for hosting this fruitful discussion.

One of the best parts of this job is getting to meet farmers where they are across the country — and today, that included Alberta's new Minister of Agriculture and Irrigation. Thank you, Minister @TaraSawyer23 , for hosting me at your farm.

Yesterday, Alberta Grains' Tasha Alexander and Heather Snethun joined Minister @TaraSawyer23 at @smithbilthats in Calgary to celebrate women in agriculture and the International Year of the Woman Farmer.
Alberta Grains was proud to support the event recognizing women in ag.
It was awesome to be able to visit @CDC_USask with @GrainGrowers this afternoon. Getting to meet scientist who bred varieties I’ve grown and sold for years was truly a privilege.
A great afternoon at the @CDC_USask!
GGC members had the opportunity to learn more about the research and innovation helping deliver new crop varieties and strengthen the competitiveness of Canadian grain farmers.
Thank you to the CDC team for the tour!

GGC’s @BruceBurrows59 and @katesauser14 were in Regina last week for @FCCagriculture’s agriculture and trade event, joining key conversations on CUSMA, Canada-U.S. relations, and what’s ahead for Canadian agriculture ahead of the July 1 review. #cdnag #cdnpoli

Canada can't afford more supply chain disruptions.
+70% of Canadian grain is exported, when rail and ports stop moving, farmers pay the price immediately and permanently. Canada needs a modernized labour framework for trade-enabling sectors.

GGC was pleased to join this discussion with @RepGregSteube on the importance of reliable Canada-U.S. agricultural trade.
For Canadian grain farmers, open and predictable cross-border markets are essential to keeping supply chains moving across North America. #USMCA #CUSMA

Grain farmers on both sides of the border depend on a stable, predictable North American trading framework. GGC is proud to stand with @AgForUSMCA in support of #USMCA/#CUSMA renewal. #cdnag
Great to meet with @AgforUSMCA, bringing together Canadian and American farm and agri-food groups united in support of #USMCA/#CUSMA renewal. A strong reminder that a stable, predictable North American trading framework is a shared priority on both sides of the border.

GGC has joined more than 160 agricultural organizations from Canada, the U.S. and Mexico in calling on governments to protect and strengthen CUSMA ahead of the July 1 joint review. Canada's grain sector must be front of mind.
