We're all in this together. We couldn't be more proud of the farmers, food makers, truckers, store stockers, and more who are working so hard to make sure the products Canadians need get from #FarmFactoryStoretoDoor.

Dear Gov't: During crisis, Canada's food and consumer products industry is focused on one thing - ensuring Canadians they have the products they depend on. We ask that you take a temporary pause on regulatory work not related to the #COVIDCanada response. #FoodIsFundamental
