Executive Director, Canadian Agri-Food Trade Alliance

I can only speak on behalf of the members we represent, meaning the entire agri-food sector, except for horticulture and sectors subject to supply management.

We have very close ties with negotiators, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Global Affairs Canada and market stakeholders. We are never at the negotiating table of course, but we are involved and we provide the market outlook, which these negotiators do not have.
