In Canada, CBC reported that Manitoba is putting $9.3 million to the development of a $73-million grain tech facility in Winnipeg’s Exchange District with the aim of connecting Canadian cereals producers with new international partners.
“This is really about showcasing our ag industry at a time when Canada absolutely needs to diversify our trading partners,” Premier Wab Kinew said.
“This is a good long-term investment in ensuring the backbone of our western Canadian economy, or Manitoba economy, is going to stay strong. We’re looking for more places to do business.”
