An original and textured analysis of how agricultural developments in Quebec and Ontario had a significant and direct impact on rural settlement in the Prairies.

Introducing the second edition of Agriculture Law in Canada the only Canadian treatise on agricultural law offering comprehensive, national coverage of the legal issues facing this critical industry. Farming and its related industries have undergone many changes since the first edition was released in 1999. This new edition has been significantly updated to reflect the statutory and case law developments of the past 20 years. This revised edition of Agriculture Law in Canada offers a thoroughly updated examination of the major topics in this practice area.

The last 20 years have challenged the Canadian farming community. The expansion of the 1970s, followed by the high debt, drought and trade wars of the 1980s, have shown clearly the vulnerability of the sector to changing markets, economic factors and weather. This document discusses the the strength of the Canadian agri-food industry, and reviews the agri-food policies and practices. It also examines the process of choosing a new vision, and proposes directions for a change.
