Ministers and public health officials hold a news conference to provide an update on the COVID-19 situation in Canada.
Day: January 22, 2021
Throughout its response to the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic, the Government of Canada has been in regular contact with provinces and territories to assess the needs of regions hardest hit by the pandemic’s resurgence and to provide support that will help protect the health and safety of Canadians.
The Government of Canada is investing $162.6 million in the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) over the next five years and $40 million per year of ongoing funding after that to strengthen the safety of Canada’s food supply, protect the health of plants and animals, and provide ongoing service to Canadian businesses as they grow their export and import activities.
As we work toward our economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and begin to build back better, it is more important than ever that the Government of Canada invests in services that are essential to the security and growth of Canadian agriculture and agri-food businesses.
