Heath MacDonald Liberal
“We have a $3.2-billion food plan. We are spending $1 billion to improve how food is stored, moved, and sold. This will support farmers and strengthen our food supply.”
“Mr. Speaker, food security is national security. I thank the member for all her hard work in her riding. We have an ambitious $3.2-billion national food security strategy in play, the largest and, further, most invested in AFC’s history. We have just announced a $1-billion food link. We are investing in transportation, we are investing in storage and we are investing in distribution and market connections to strengthen the food supply chains to support our farmers and make them more sustainable and prosperous for years to come. This means more choice, more Canada and more control.”
