Every supply chain disruption comes at a cost to Canadian agriculture.
From delayed shipments to lost sales, disruptions across rail and port infrastructure threaten Canada’s grain sector, damage our reputation as a reliable global trading partner, and impact everyone who depends on efficient transportation networks.
Recent economic analysis identified five key findings:
- Supply chain shutdowns create significant economic losses.
- Rail disruptions cause widespread harm across the sector.
- Lost sales account for more than 90% of the economic impact.
- The economic effects begin before a strike even occurs.
- Repeated disruptions damage Canada’s global reputation.
These impacts are felt across Canadian agriculture, affecting producers, exporters, and our competitiveness in global markets. To find out more information, and let your MP know the importance of these findings, act now and go to KeepGrainMoving.ca to add your voice.
