April 6 is the launch of the Ontario Food Industry Environmental Coalition, a self-described access point between the food industry and the provincial government. The coalition, which calls itself the food industry equivalent to the Ontario Farm Environmental Council, is holding a one-day symposium in Mississauga to get the ball rolling. The coalition comprises a number of food industry associations including the Alliance of Ontario Food Processors, the Ontario Agri-Business Association and Food and Consumer Products of Canada. The coalition is being coordinated by Lisa McLean from the Alliance of Ontario Food Processors.
