Construction of the new 1.1 million metric tonne canola processing plant at Northgate is expected to begin in 2022 and will increase exports of value-added products via the direct connection to the BNSF Railway adjacent to the United States border. With this investment by Ceres, our capacity for value-added production within our province will be further increased, producing more high-quality canola oil and meal for export to current and new markets around the world, Trade and Export Development Minister Jeremy Harrison said. This is good news for jobs and our economy in Saskatchewan, and this also supports our Growth Plan goal to increase agri-food exports to $20 billion in the years ahead.
