Liberal Leader Hopeful sets her Sights on the End of Supply Management

by

The Liberal Party of Canada is in the middle of choosing a new leader. While the vast majority of attention has been lavished on a raven-haired prime minister’s son, Martha Hall Findlay has been the first (and perhaps only) candidate to bring any part of an agriculture platform into the race.

RealAgriculture.com’s editor, Lyndsey Smith, spoke with Ms. Hall Findlay about her bid for the head Liberal job and particularly about her stance on supply management. Ending supply management is a subject she tackled as an executive fellow with the University of Calgary’s School of Public Policy. (To read her research paper, click here).
