‘We should always aim for free trade’: low tariffs not good enough say agriculture leaders on Hoekstra remarks

U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra says Canada should make the case that it’s a good business parter so it can avoid high tariffs. Some Canadian agriculture experts say that’s already happening.

“We are excited to welcome the Global Ag Risk Solutions team to Hub,” said President of Hub Prairies Ryan Matthews. “They will elevate our expertise and offerings in the region, providing clients with the support they look for as they go into each farming season.”

“We look forward to starting our journey with Hub,” said Executive Vice-President of Global Ag Risk Solutions Dave Sullivan. “Hub’s reputation in the market and the depth and breadth of expertise and resources will provide a strong foundation for delivering outstanding service to our clients and for our continued growth.”

Global Ag Risk Solutions will be referred to as Global Ag Risk Solutions, a Hub International company.
