Statement from Pierre Lampron, president of Dairy Farmers of Canada on a meeting with Prime Minister Trudeau Français
OTTAWA, Oct. 4, 2018 /CNW/ - "We recognize the symbolism of the gesture of Prime Minister Trudeau, in offering to meet with our industry to hear our concerns firsthand. However, the absence of details on measures to mitigate the impact of the concessions made within the USMCA, as well as the absence of a vision for the future of our industry at this time, cannot appease the concerns of the dairy farmers."
