At the Canadian Agri-Retailers Association (CAAR), we are committed to being the united voice for ag retailers across Canada. We focus on educating and advocating for responsible farming practices that not only help our industry but also protect the environment for future generations. With Myrna Grahn leading the way as our Executive Director, we’re making sure the needs and viewpoints of ag retailers are front and center in government discussions. Myrna and her team are all about collaboration and communication, working to create a supportive environment where ag retailers can really thrive as the agricultural landscape evolves.

This week, CAAR is in Action!! Myrna is in Ottawa, rolling up her sleeves and meeting with various government departments and industry associations to amplify our advocacy efforts. She’s got a packed schedule filled with meetings with key policymakers and attending key events, where she’ll highlight the unique challenges and opportunities facing ag retailers. It’s all about fostering strong relationships with government officials and partners, so we can build a collective voice that resonates in the ag sector. These conversations are crucial for pushing policies that support sustainable agriculture, improve market access, and drive innovation. CAAR is here to ensure that the concerns of ag retailers are heard loud and clear, solidifying our role as a vital player in the future of Canadian agriculture.

Make sure to follow along on CAAR social media platforms this week! Communication of the results of these meetings will be emailed to members, so ensure you take a moment to open your Member Alerts.
