Impact of TPP unknown for Sask. dairy sector
SaskMilk is calling the Trans Pacific Partnership (TTP) a “draw” for dairy farmers in Saskatchewan.
The deal reached Monday reduces or eliminates barriers on a staggering array of Canadian exports on everything from machines to canola, beef and pork, minerals, forestry products and seafood.
Other parts of the deal, such as the dairy sector are controversial.
“We would have preferred no access or less access, but we understand something had to be done,” said Joy Smith, manager of policy and communications for SaskMilk.
