PAUL STECKLE
'Agriculture, a solid foundation for Canada"
"Canada is a nation founded upon agriculture; a country
that has linked its national economy to the success of the
agricultural sector. If agriculture flourishes then so does
the rest of Canada. Governments must recognize this and
then act accordingly. This Liberal government has proven
its clear understanding of this reality" - Paul Steckle 2006
"Our commitment to the agricultural community was to accelerate our review
of the CAIS programme and to do it in accordance with Wayne Easter's
Report The fundamental principle of his report was to get more money into
producer's pockets. The Grains and Oil seed producers have proposed a way
to do just that. And we agree. So our review will be conducted with exactly
their proposal in mind."
Rt. Hon. Paul Martin, Prime Minister of Canada
Leader, Liberal Party of Canada
