From: Canadian Grain Commission
Winnipeg, Manitoba (October 22, 2026) – Producers who were not paid for grain delivered to Grasslands Brokerage & Consulting Ltd. have been compensated for their eligible claims through the Canadian Grain Commission’s Safeguards for Grain Farmers Program.
Grasslands Brokerage & Consulting Ltd.’s grain dealer licence was revoked on July 10, 2026, after the company failed to meet the Canadian Grain Commission’s requirements to remain licensed. Following a review of individual producer claims, the Canadian Grain Commission determined that there were 2 eligible claims for unpaid deliveries to Grasslands Brokerage & Consulting Ltd. The company’s security was not sufficient to fully compensate eligible producers, so individual payments were prorated and producers received 68% compensation for their eligible claims.
The Canadian Grain Commission’s final audit of the company found additional amounts owing to several other producers. However, these amounts are ineligible for compensation because the deliveries fell outside of the program eligibility period or were of a grain that is not regulated by the Canada Grain Act.
While Grasslands Brokerage and Consulting Ltd continues to operate, they are not licensed by the Canadian Grain Commission. Grain producers who do business with this company on or after July 10, 2026, are not protected by security under the Canada Grain Act.
