OFA’s letter to Ontario Finance Minister Rod Phillips outlined key recommendations as part of the Minister’s 2020 Ontario Pre-Budget consultations. OFA also presented these recommendations on January 17 to the Ontario Legislative Standing Committee on Finance and Economic Affairs as part of the Committee’s Pre-budget Hearings. These recommendations are designed to grow Ontario’s agri-food sector and our rural communities. Sound investments in rural Ontario will jumpstart farming, agri-business and rural Ontario growth, and in turn, stimulate the entire Ontario economy.
