GSCC Meets with MP Bobby Morrissey Regarding PEI Potato Ban

The GSCC recognizes the significant contribution the agriculture industry, in particular the potato industry, has on our region and the GSCC membership base. In reaction to the USA border closure for PEI table potato products, the GSCC struck a task force in November to support this industry and our greater Summerside economy.

Last week, this task force held a virtual meeting with our local MP. Bobby Morrissey to raise concerns on behalf of our members.

As a follow-up to this meeting, Mr. Morrissey has agreed to participate in a town hall with the GSCC membership. Our members will have the opportunity to hear directly from, and ask questions to our local federal representative. Stay tuned for a date and time!
