This summer our team met with representatives from the Government of Manitoba and Manitoba Agriculture’s Sustainable Canadian Agriculture Program.
The Sustainable CAP is a five-year, $3.5-billion investment by Canada’s federal, provincial and territorial governments that supports Canada’s agri-food and agri-products sectors. This includes $1 billion in federal programs and activities and a $2.5 billion commitment that is cost-shared 60 per cent federally and 40 per cent provincially-territorially for programs that are designed and delivered by provinces and territories.
We’re very thankful to Wendy Carnegie and Mervin Traverse for taking the time to meet with us, and introduce us to the suite of programs that are available.
Next month, there will be some new programs for the Indigenous Agriculture and Relationship Development program. We hope you will check them out as there are some really great program opportunities for communities, businesses and organizations.
