The governments of Canada and Quebec support the deployment of the Quebec’s sea buckthorn sector’s communication plan.

Jean-Claude Poissant, Parliamentary Secretary to the federal Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, Lawrence MacAulay, and Caroline Simard, Member of the National Assembly for Charlevoix-Côte-de-Beaupré, on behalf of Laurent Lessard, Quebec Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, today announced a financial assistance up to $17,010 to the Association des producteurs d’argousier du Québec (APAQ) to organize a forum where attendees can take stock of current sea buckthorn production in order to be able to plan future development and marketing more effectively.

The financial assistance is being provided under the Quebec Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food’s Programme de développement sectoriel, as part of the Canada–Quebec Growing Forward 2 (GF2) agreement.
