Food  sovereignty  is  not  important.  Canada  will  never  be  self  reliant  in  the  production  of  bananas  or  pineapples  and  it  isn't  important  that  we  are  sovereign  in  the  production  of  any  other  food.

Any  increases  in  cost,  such  as  carbon  taxes,  will  be  difficult  for  producers  and  processors  but  it  is  difficult  to  foresee  any  situation  short  of  an  ice  age  where  Canada  is  not  a  huge  producer  and  exporter  of  food  to  the  rest  of  the  world.
