Trudeau says Ottawa is looking into targeted aid for farmers struggling with inflation
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the federal government is looking at how it can provide targeted aid to farmers who are struggling with inflation.
He says that while inflation has started to slow, the government wants to ensure farmers and others who are struggling can hold on for the next six months to a year. Yves Laurencelle, a cattle and blueberry farmer, told Trudeau that while it’s fine if assistance is targeted, farmers can’t afford to wait.
“It’s not the fault of the people who are working, it’s the crisis we’re going through, but I’m telling you, Mr. Trudeau, there has to be aid quickly.”
