Agriculture and Agri-Food

A debate on agriculture research funding. The Conservatives criticized high travel and hospitality expenses by a Crown corporation CEO, and cited statistics showing declining public and private investment in ag research. The Liberals defended their approach of "spending less to invest more" and claimed they are building a "collaborative science system" to support agriculture. Much of the debate consisted of partisan talking points and potshots rather than substantive discussion of the issues.
