OFA backs stock grants over grain subsidies
The Ontario Federation of Agriculture at its annual convention voted to drop grain freight subsidies for livestock feed from Western Canada and instead urge the federal government to pay stock grants. Delegates argued funds similar to the current 4.5 million yearly feed subsidy should support the new program, while critics note the Canada Wheat Board diverts subsidies to prairie producers. The plan would extend subsidies to Ontario grain moving into Quebec and Maritime markets, a step the government has not yet taken.
