Fertilizer Canada’s President & CEO, Michael Bourque, and Vice President of Industrial Affairs, Nadine Frost, appeared before the Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development as part of its study on industrial carbon pricing. Canadian fertilizer producers and manufacturers operate under some of the highest standards in the world. As a globally traded commodity, fertilizer is sold into international markets where Canadian producers compete with jurisdictions that do not face the same cost and regulatory conditions. Given fertilizer’s strategic importance, Canada’s ability to compete globally is critical. Policy must reflect these realities to support investment and ensure the sector continues to contribute to both economic and environmental outcomes. Watch the testimony: ourcommons.ca/committees/en/…

Fertilizer Canada’s President and CEO, Michael Bourque, appeared before the Standing Senate Committee on Agriculture and Forestry as part of its study on the role of the agriculture and agri-food sector in supporting food security in Canada. His remarks emphasized that food security depends on the reliable access and movement of fertilizers, highlighting the strength of Canada’s domestic production, including our world-leading potash industry. He also noted key vulnerabilities, including challenges in getting new products to market, our reliance on imports, and fragile supply chains. Strengthening Canada’s food security requires a number of measures, such as improving domestic supply chains through infrastructure investment, addressing labour disruptions, and creating a competitive and efficient regulatory environment. 📺Watch the testimony: senparlvu.parl.gc.ca/Harmony/en/Pow…
