Alberta (Rural Roots Canada) – On this RRC podcast, hosts Tim Parent and Craig Lester look back on a busy year in Canadian agriculture.

From their trip to the Yukon, where farmers like Leona Watson are forging their own path in the North (2:44), to celebrating the Perry Family Farm, winners of the inaugural PepsiCo Global Farmer of the Year Award (11:24), the team covers a lot of ground. They also talk changing perceptions around beef with Jenna Sarich (13:52), visit Cudlobe Angus to chat with David and Dyce Bolduc (16:50), and wrap up with a look ahead to 2026’s canola outlook with Alberta Canola chair Andre Harpe (21:15).
