Quebec delegation visits Lethbridge to explore Agri-food industry
A delegation from Quebec is here in Lethbridge this week to drive growth in the agri-food business in southern Alberta.
The delegation consists of 10 companies in Quebec that specialize in processing automation and digitization in the industry. It includes a three-day visit to network and do some facility touring within the food corridor industry in our region.
As part of Canada’s Premier Food Corridor, this is an effort to demonstrate interprovincial collaboration in the wake of the government knocking down domestic trade barriers across Canada.
The One Canadian Economy Act was passed in June of last year and is aimed at reducing domestic trade barriers and improving trade and services between provinces.
