Transport Minister Omar Alghabra said on Thursday that 21 recommendations from the National Supply Chain Task Force's final report "will help guide our work in making our supply chains better and deliver more affordable products to Canadians."
The report found that Canada’s supply chains “desperately” need an overhaul as global issues continue to limit the supply of goods in the nation.
Supply chain issues, which have limited the availability of many items at various points throughout the year like some children’s pain and fever medication, vehicles and even Halloween candy, have “exposed and exacerbated longstanding weaknesses in the Canadian supply chain,” the final report from the National Supply Chain Task Force 2022 reads.
Released Thursday, the report’s authors highlight how government and industry struggle to cope with uncertainties arising due to factors like rapidly changing trade patterns, human- and climate-caused disruptions, shifting geopolitical risk, and increased consolidation in major transportation modes.
