The introduction of Bill 47 - which would open the door to more inter-provincial trade between Manitoba and other Canadian provinces - was one of the highlights of the recently completed session of he Manioba Legislature.
Dauphin MLA and Provincial Agriculture Minister Ron Kostyshyn welcomed the new bill.
"The tariffs that have been brought forward aor could potentially be brought forward truly brought this Bill 47 forward, because within Canada, we need to have more transparency of building opportunities between provinces. And not only within the province of building on that opportunity but also added value business opportunities."
Kostyshyn thinks the new bill will allow for the continued growth of value-added opportunities for commodities such as soybeans and canola, which in turn will create more employment and tax revenue in the province.
