Canadians back protecting food sovereignty and supply management as CUSMA talks continue: survey
About this episode
The episode discusses a survey indicating strong Canadian support for food sovereignty and supply management during CUSMA negotiations.
Canadians overwhelmingly believe the country should maintain control over its food supply, and want Ottawa to stand firm in defending farmers, dairy farmers, and supply management as trade negotiations continue with the United States, according to new polling by Nanos Research. The survey, commissioned by the Dairy Farmers of Canada, found 91 per cent of Canadians say maintaining Canadian control over the food supply is important, while 68 per cent believe the federal government should strongly defend the interests of dairy farmers during CUSMA negotiations.
