Grain Farmers launches attack ads

Grain Farmers of Ontario is launching radio and television attack ads this week to tell Canadians about discrepancies between United States and Canadian help for farmers.

The ads point out that the U.S. is spending about $19 billion to help agriculture while Canada’s main help has been allowing Farm Credit Canada to lend farmers more money.

The ads tell Canadians that their food system is breaking and shows decaying farm buildings.
