Great meeting with #agriculture ParlSec @francis_drouin! CCBA's Christine and Blair covered crucial topics: Excise modernization, low-risk drinking guidelines, CEBA loan concessions, and inquired about the federal government’s stance on single-use plastics following Nov.16.

Hundreds of business groups urging Freeland to extend emergency loan repayment deadline:
