Federal Agriculture Minister Marie-Claude Bibeau is putting together a youth council she hopes will help her address issues on the future of food production in Canada. Bibeau said she had a youth council for her riding before she was in cabinet, and she wants to bring that voice to her cabinet office as well. The council will be one way for her to hear from a larger variety of voices, she said. 'What is your ambition for the future'Bibeau is looking for people aged 18 to 30 with experience in the agriculture sector. Regional representation will also be very important, she said, as the experience of farming in Alberta is very different from the experience of farming on Prince Edward Island.
