In this insightful episode of The Food Professor podcast, hosts Michael LeBlanc and Sylvain Charlebois explore Canadian food politics and industry developments before sitting down with Adam Grogan, President and COO of Maple Leaf Foods, for a revealing conversation about the company's evolution and future.The episode begins with a discussion of Canada's new Liberal cabinet, focusing on Heath MacDonald from PEI as the new Agriculture Minister replacing Kody Blois. The hosts express mixed feelings about the appointment, noting MacDonald's farming background as a positive sign. They also analyze Chrystia Freeland's surprising role as Transportation Minister and its implications for agricultural logistics.Another highlight includes the new interprovincial trade deal between Manitoba and Ontario, which aims to reduce trade barriers. Charlebois emphasizes that such provincial initiatives will drive meaningful change, not federal promises, potentially opening new markets for small and medium-sized food producers currently limited by licensing requirements.The hosts then discuss American food inflation dropping from 3% to 2.8% despite tariffs, questioning why U.S. consumers haven't experienced price increases despite trade restrictions with Canada, China, and Mexico.The feature interview with Adam Grogan reveals Maple Leaf Foods' transformation beyond being merely a protein company. Grogan describes the organization as a "CPG powerhouse" with numerous brands, including Tender Flake lard, Sunrise, Larson, Burns, Mitchell's, Schneiders, Prime poultry, and Greenfield natural meats. He also discusses their $1 billion investment in processing facilities in London, Winnipeg, and Brampton to enhance global competitiveness.On plant-based proteins, Grogan shares a nuanced perspective, noting they are "the largest share of refrigerated plant protein in North America" with three dedicated brands and manufacturing plants. While acknowledging recent market challenges, he remains optimistic about the future, citing changing consumer preferences and Canada's position as the world's largest producer of pulses and legumes.Sustainability forms a cornerstone of their strategy, with Grogan stating, "Animal production is one of the largest emitters of carbon anywhere, and big food needs to do more." Maple Leaf Foods was the first Canadian company to align with science-based targets from the Paris Agreement and the first major food company to declare carbon neutrality in 2019.The episode concludes with discussions on Newfoundland's ineffective sugar tax, which has collected $30 million without changing consumption patterns, and the controversial government-funded Aspire Foods cricket farm in London that recently entered receivership despite $9 million in public funding.This episode offers valuable insights into Canadian food policy, sustainable protein production, and the evolution of one of Canada's largest food companies under progressive leadership.

PEI has the highest voter turnout of any other province in Canada. Voting is fundamental to this community. Residents see firsthand how their vote matters — several elections were decided by 25 votes or less. In this small province, people have a personal and intimate connection with politicians. MLAs know voters on an individual basis and they feel a duty to their job.

  Are you traveling? Tell me why or why not. Need a confidence boost? Here are the 5 Steps to Solo travel, summarized and a link to the book on Amazon.  https://www.amazon.com/Five-Steps-Solo-Travel-Womans/dp/B0BC2FXLPY Step 1: Local Solo Travel. Close to home local travel. Step 2: Domestic solo trips, familiar with the territory. Maybe cross country. Step 3: National travel with more complexity, such as Alaska or Hawaii Step 4: International travel in familiar cultures Step 5: Fully independent, adventurous international solo travel. I've been creating this podcast weekly since 2018. I'm on my way to helping more than 100,000 women travel solo. Are you one of us? https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com FAQ: You asked? Where am I traveling this summer? Here is your FAQ response: I start in Colombia, then Ecuador for Galapagos, then Peru for Machu Pichu, and then Brazil for some beach life in Salvador and near Rio. I will finish in Argentina's Iguazu Falls, then return to Sao Paulo for my Cape Town, South Africa flight. I'll be there for several days and depart from Johannesburg to Athens, Greece. After being there for a week, I'll explore other parts of Europe, including Poland and Scandinavia. I'll be there for a while, and then across to travel in Canada, hopefully Halifax and PEI, before I go home 90 days later via Toronto. That's the plan for the summer trip. I'll be staying with families via Servas (World Peace) and at lower-budget hotels. I'll book local activities where I can. I'll have a small footprint and carry a pack that weighs less than 15 lbs.  Lessons learned from my 90-day trip in 2023 Most of them were about the wrong direction or the wrong destination. This time, I know that I may make similar mistakes, but I hope to make fewer of them. I have a hard time with remembering which way I came in, such as a hotel room. I need to be more aware of the physical presence, and take notes in my brain about them. Today's Travel Advice- I'm planning the trip daily now, and most of my decisions can be made from Europe. However, if I want to get a Eurail pass, I should do so before I leave the USA.  https://www.eurail.com/en/eurail-passes/deals/eurail-pass-discounts/eurail-senior-discounts   I am concerned about how the world sees the USA these days. I will never be alone. I'll always have God with me. I'll be praying every minute, as best I can.

Tell us how we're doing, or just say hiJust like coffee shops, it seems that education consultancies are multiplying faster than rabbits in Kathmandu. I've always wondered why prospective students spend tens or even hundreds of thousands of rupees to have someone fill out their overseas college and university applications for them. After all, if they've made it to Grade 12 or beyond, surely they must be able to do it themselves. So I was very happy to have nursing expert Radha Adhikari on the show to explain some of the reasons why it's not quite as simple as I thought. I think you'll agree that her information and insights are fascinating.Also, I am happy, and proud, to announce that Nepal Now is 100 episodes old! Thank you to everyone who's listened since 2020. That's when I started the show as a way to broaden the conversation about ‘development' and Nepal, and to share more of the kinds of interviews that I was already doing, instead of having them reduced to just a couple of paragraphs in an article.For those of you still listening, I have just one request: Feedback please!

I think, as has already been mentioned by a number of you, that we need to slow down, not speed up. This is a moment for really slow thinking and to be listening and to be doing deep listening. I like this concept that we use, again in Primary Colours. Instead of thinking of outreach and trying to convince people and tell them about how great the arts are, we need to do in-reach, we need to go into communities and listen to people, go where people are and understand what it is they understand about their cultures, plural. And their art practices plural. And after that process, maybe there's something to be said. - Chris Creighton-Kelly (1h03m05s)A special edition conscient roundtable with Robin Sokoloski, Annette Hegel, Jai Djwa, Owais Lightwala, Sarah Garton Stanley (SGS), Max Wyman, Chris Creighton-Kelly and Claude SchryerKey linkshttps://createcanada.caSave the Arts, Blow Up the Old WaysDoes Canadian culture reflect Canadian identity?Controversy over lemmings painting exposes the real snowflakes at PEI veterinary collegePrimary ColoursEpisode notes generated by Whisper Transcribe AIAction pointsAcknowledge the ongoing nature of crisis and disruption, particularly in the arts sectorFocus on deep listening and understanding the value of art within communitiesDeconstruct and pluralize the concept of Canadian culture, embracing multiplicity and diverse voicesRecognize the importance of both large-scale advocacy and grassroots community engagementSeek out joy and connection as a means of addressing broader systemic challengesStory PreviewWhat does it mean to be Canadian in a rapidly changing world?

I think it's about what the artist can do to find joy, help people find joy and meaning and grace and courage in a world that right now doesn't seem to offer much of that.Robin Sokoloski: Art is in the relationship.Behind the StoryAmidst rising global tensions and a re-emerging sense of Canadian identity, Claude Schryer convened a diverse group of artists and cultural workers for an open discussion. Inspired by the Create Canada project and recent articles and media exploring the state of Canadian culture, the conversation navigates complex issues of decolonization, regionalism, and the essential role of art in building community. The participants grapple with defining Canadian values and finding actionable ways to foster a more inclusive and vibrant cultural landscape. *END NOTES FOR ALL EPISODESHey conscient listeners, I've been producing the conscient podcast as a learning and unlearning journey since May 2020 on un-ceded Anishinaabe Algonquin territory (Ottawa).

Episode 359: On a warm summer evening in June 1887, 17-year-old Mary Pickering Tuplin vanished from her family's farm in Margate, PEI. A search and a grim discovery followed that would rock the quiet farming community to its core. Mary's body was found in the Southwest River, weighed down by a heavy stone, with two gunshot wounds to her head. The subsequent investigation would uncover a web of secrets, including the fact that Mary was six months pregnant. Circumstantial evidence led to 19-year-old William Millman's arrest, allegedly Mary's lover. The shocking facts of the crime and its investigation led to a sensational trial that captivated the entire country. Millman was convicted and sent to the gallows in April 1888. Was justice indeed served, or, as some speculate, was an innocent man sent to the gallows?
