The Simpson Centre initiated a focus group for agricultural industry stakeholders in the Canadian poultry sector to gauge their opinions on the current interaction of this sector with policy, the challenges that are specific to this sector, and their short-term and long- term priorities . Most concerns and frustrations voiced by participants involved the restrictions of the supply management system; however, the focus group felt the system provided protections that made poultry farming economically feasible . Participants felt there was a lack of meaningful consultation between different levels of government and the poultry sector, resulting in rigid regulatory requirements, and furthermore that the tension between consumers’ demands for low-cost food and producers’ challenges supplying the industry at a low cost has resulted in the need for investment and prioritizations of innovative practices .
