This means that governments need to work together, and with stakeholders, to move agri-food policy forward. As governments ramp up negotiations on the next 5-year agriculture policy framework it is time to check the health of the Federal-Provincial-Territorial (FPT) relationship, ask whether it is positioned to deal with the challenges the agri-food system is facing, and consider how it should change to ensure the agri-food system can increase it’s economic, environmental, and social contributions. This engaging dialogue will build on Douglas Hedley’s Perspective Report, Understanding our Past, and Present: Designing our Future: Federal-Provincial-Territorial Policy Making and Canadian Agriculture<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001R0mwZuFW12NM2vrvQeEb2Lw-Jl7Sa273nBAbxNSUX-Q…> released by CAPI earlier this year.

Cela signifie que les gouvernements doivent travailler ensemble, et avec les intervenants, pour faire avancer les politique agroalimentaires. Alors que les gouvernements s'apprêtent à négocier le prochain cadre stratégique quinquennal (2023 à 2028) pour l'agriculture, il est temps de vérifier l'état de santé de la relation fédérale-provinciale-territoriale (FPT), de se demander si elle est en mesure de relever les défis auxquels le système agroalimentaire est confronté et d'examiner comment elle devrait évoluer pour que le système agroalimentaire puisse accroître ses contributions économiques, environnementales et sociales.
