Grains on Tap is not your typical policy podcast. We’re opening the doors of Parliament Hill, sitting down with the powerhouses of Canadian agriculture and policymaking. We plan to chat with the movers and shakers in agriculture policy, ranging from Members of Parliament and Senators to government relations professionals, to bring you an inside look into everything happening inside the good old Ottawa bubble. And here’s the twist: we’re doing it over some great craft beer. As we explore agriculture policy, we’ll also be raising a glass to the growers and brewers from across the country.
Whether you’re a fourth-generation farmer, a policymaker navigating the halls of Parliament Hill, or just someone curious about the heartbeat of agriculture in Ottawa, you’re in the right place. So grab your favorite beer, kick back, and let’s cultivate a deeper understanding of the policies that shape our fields—on Grains on Tap.

Welcome back to Grains on Tap, where Canadian agriculture policy and craft beer intersect.
We're joined by Francis Drouin, Member of Parliament for Glengarry-Prescott-Russell, Ontario and the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food. Since taking office in 2015, Francis has been a fervent supporter of farmers and a proponent of economic development in rural communities. He also understands the intersection of government and public affairs, having worked in government relations both as a consultant and for a not-for-profit.
But Francis didn't arrive empty-handed! Joining us on a late Monday afternoon, he's here with good news related to the Advanced Payments Program (APP). So, grab your favourite craft beer and settle in for another episode of Grains on Tap.
