## Resource

Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois welcome back Michael Graydon, CEO of FHCP, for a deep dive into Canada’s food manufacturing sector. The wide-ranging conversation explores regulatory burdens, access to capital, retail consolidation, and trade uncertainty. Graydon highlights the growing divide between large and small manufacturers and the importance of the Grocery Code of Conduct. In the news, government policy shifts with the new Liberal majority, the amazing innovative work of the Greater Vancouver Food Bank, positive fuel tax implications, food price dynamics, supply chain developments, and the growing divide in Canada’s “K-shaped economy,” celebrating a key role in restaurants, a Vancouver restaurant that epitomizes the bespoke tin seafood TikTok trend and former NFL star Laurent Duvernay-Tardif purchasing a Montreal bakery.
