The agriculture industry is a complex and multi-level chain comprising of suppliers, farmers, processors, retailers and consumers in Canada and abroad. This industry is a generator of wealth, key to Canada's prosperity.

As Agriculture Critic, I have the opportunity to work with industry, primary producers and Parliament to build a stronger, more vibrant rural Canada and strengthen our farmer's voice in Ottawa.
