The Trudeau administration recently announced its intention to bring (potentially stifling) environmental regulations to Canada's Ag sector. So far, the rules are just proposals and are still ambiguous and evolving. The Netherlands kicked off what is fast becoming a green agenda in Ag that could leave the farm sector economically wounded or even force Dutch farmers to liquidate. Is this degree of green crusade coming to North America via Canada? Manitoban farmer Riley Anderson joins me to discuss the potential outcomes, negatives, and even a possible positive for farmers.
