The Animal Health Canada's Emergency Management Division says the focus of the division right now is planning and preparedness for foreign animal disease. Director Erica Charlton says, at this stage, the main focus is disease planning and preparedness with the big three being African Swine Fever, Foot and Mouth Disease and High Path Avian Influenza in poultry.

Four cereal-based producer commissions in Saskatchewan, Alberta, Manitoba and Ontario have announced plans to contribute $13.4 million to the proposed Global Technology Exchange in Winnipeg. The project---known by the acronym GATE---will contain state-of-the-art equipment for milling, baking, pasta and noodle making, malt and brewing as well as processing.

It will cover services provided in the current Cereals Canada facility. GATE’S total cost will be $102 million—which includes a site in downtown Winnipeg, construction and the cost of housing advanced milling equipment.

Sask Wheat director Rob Stone farms in the Davidson area.  He says with the producer funding in place . . . along with $5 million from Cereals Canada . . . the next step will be to approach government entities and other potential funding partners.
