Danielle Smith says pulling Alberta out of supply management is worth considering
OTTAWA — Canada's dairy and poultry supply management regime could face a major challenge from within with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith saying she could consider the province exiting the quota system. Smith said at a town hall in Red Deer, Alta., that she found the idea of the province opting out of supply management intriguing. '(C)reating our own Alberta version of supply management, maybe as a pathway to a market system and maybe just because it would stick our finger in the eye of Quebec … might be (something) we want to do a little consultation on,' said Smith. Smith noted that Alberta's share of the Canada-wide quotas for dairy and egg production allotted under supply management falls below its share of the population.

Her comments came after one of the attendees, Lee Eddy, a resident of Red Deer County, said earlier in the evening that pulling out of the system would be one way for Alberta to grab the attention of Laurentian power brokers. The town hall was being held as part of Smith's Alberta Next panel, struck to consider tactics for enhancing Alberta's sovereignty. 'If we really want to make the eastern politicians … change their underwear, we should remove our supply management from the Canadian system,' said Eddy. Quebec producers hold roughly 37 per cent of Canada's total milk quota, with Ontario producers holding 32 per cent , according to Agriculture and Agri-Foods Canada. Producers in the two provinces have exerted considerable clout over politicians, given their concentration in certain ridings. Alberta producers hold just short of nine per cent, despite the province representing more than 11 per cent of the national population. Eddy suggested that Alberta move first to a transitional provincial quota system and eventually to a market-based system. Supply management has emerged as a major trade irritant with the U.S., further complicating already delicate cross-border trade negotiations. U.S. President Donald Trump singled out Canada's restricted dairy market in a recent letter to Prime Minister Mark Carney, threatening to slap 35 per cent tariffs on all Canadian products on August 1. During the recent federal election, Carney promised to keep supply management 'off the table' in new trade negotiations with the U.S. Federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has also said he supports supply management . Sylvain Charlebois, director of the Agri-Foods Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University, says that Alberta's relative lack of skin in the dairy-quota game gives it a freer hand to take on supply management. 'I could potentially see Alberta become the quote-unquote 'sh-t disturber' that could actually get everyone, and politicians in particular, to think differently about supply management, instead of just (being) blindly supportive without knowing why,' said Charlebois. He noted that dairy farmers in Alberta benefit relatively little from the existing scheme, paying up to twice as much as farmers in Quebec and Ontario for the same share of quota. Charlebois said it was 'absolutely possible' for Alberta to leave the federal system and set up its own dairy commission. But he said that provincial administration would come with its own challenges, such as selling Alberta dairy products elsewhere in Canada. 'Would they consider other provinces to be foreign markets? It's hard to say,' said Charlebois. Charlebois added that other provinces could also object to Alberta 'dumping' less expensive, non-supply-managed products across provincial lines. Alberta's milk marketing board couldn't be reached for comment. Lawrence Herman, a lawyer and international trade expert based in Toronto, says that just because Alberta can unilaterally exit supply management doesn't mean it should. 'There isn't anything that legally requires a province to participate,' said Herman. 'However, the province couldn't change the import limits and (tariff-rate quota) system, so it's difficult to see how it would work.' 'The better option is for the feds and the provinces to work together in phasing out the entire national (supply management) system,' he added. Supply management in Alberta sparked a minor controversy in April, when an egg farmer in the province was jailed in a quota dispute with the egg marketing board. Smith said in February that she'd asked her agricultural minister to 'start (a) conversation' about potential Canada-U.S. trade concessions relating to supply management. The Red Deer town hall was the first of ten scheduled in-person events hosted by the Smith-chaired Alberta Next panel. Supply management is not one of the six formal topics put up for discussion by the panel.

Lomiko Metals Announces Ruisseau Graphite Project Exploration Update, La Roche Zone Extension and Fall Workplan
Article content MONTREAL — Lomiko Metals Inc. (TSX.V: LMR) ('Lomiko' or the 'Company') announces exploration results from the spring program at the Ruisseau graphite prospect and plans for the summer/fall exploration and drilling program anticipated in November 2025. Article content Gordana Slepcev, CEO, President, and Director, stated: 'We're thrilled to advance our work on the Ruisseau graphite prospect following the success of the spring field program, which confirmed the continuity of the two western zones and revealed extended mineralization through our sampling efforts. Notably, one of the western zones expanded significantly—from 1,480 metres in 2024 to approximately 3,850 metres. These promising results have motivated us to develop a plan for further exploration, including a maiden drill program targeting the two western zones. We intend to drill 18 holes in the Rune zone and 20 in La Roche, totaling an initial 2,500 metres.' Article content Ruisseau prospecting and sampling results Article content The Company is pleased to report the results of a Beep-Mat prospecting and sampling program completed in May 2025 on the 84-claim (4,866-hectare) Ruisseau Graphite property located approximately 20 kilometres north of L'Ascension in the Laurentian Region of Québec. The primary goal of the program was to prospect and sample along the south extensions of the Rune and La Roche airborne time domain electromagnetic (TDEM) trends, specifically to confirm drill targets along these graphite-bearing structures. In 2023 and 2024, a total of 35 samples were collected along the Rune TDEM trend, with seven samples returning 15 to 20 per cent graphitic carbon (% Cg) and fifteen samples returning >20% Cg up to a maximum of 27.90% Cg along a 1,450-metre strike length. At La Roche, a total of 23 samples were collected along a 1,480-metre strike length with six samples returning 15 to 20% Cg and six returning >20% Cg up to a maximum of 24.70% Cg. Refer to the press release issued in January 2025 outlining four zones at Ruisseau ( Article content Work program Article content The 2025 work program consisted of prospecting and sampling over a 10-day period with the aid of a Beep-Mat. A total of 39 rock samples, including three QAQC samples, were collected. The samples showed strong results with 29 of 36 samples returning greater than 1.0% Cg as follows: Article content # Category Range 1 Below detection < 0.05% Cg 6 Below the Anomalous threshold < 1.0% Cg 5 Anomalous 1.0 to < 5.0% Cg 4 Low grade 5.0 to <10.0% Cg 8 Moderate grade 10.0 to <20.0% Cg 12 High grade 20.0% Cg 36 Total Article content The northeast-trending Rune zone has been delineated by prospecting and sampling along an airborne TDEM trend over a length of 1,450 metres. It remains open to the northeast and southwest beyond the limits of the 2022 Airborne. The Beep-Mat detected conductivity over surface widths up to 25 metres in places across the zone. Sampling in 2025 at the southern limit of the airborne geophysical coverage returned strong graphite results up to a maximum of 27.5% Cg. Prospecting and sampling on the south projection of the Rune zone outside the limits of the 2022 airborne geophysical survey returned two widely spaced, strong values of 6.01 and 18.00% Cg from float samples. Article content In addition, the 2025 sampling along the southern extension of the La Roche TDEM trend was incredibly successful with numerous moderate to high grade results up to a maximum of 27.5% Cg. The known strike length of the La Roche graphite zone on the Property was extended from 1,480 metres in 2024 to approximately 3,850 metres. The Beep-Mat detected high conductivity over surface widths up to 50 metres in places. The La Roche zone is approximately 450 metres east of and runs parallel to the Rune zone. La Roche zone coincides with an airborne TDEM trend that extends for its entire length within the Property and that likely continues beyond the limits of the Property. Article content The graphite mineralization at both Rune and La Roche is commonly found in bands within paragneiss and consists of very coarse-grained graphite flakes. It is usually accompanied by biotite and minor sulphides and is typically quite rusty. The apparent thickness of individual bands can be inferred by strong conductivity readings from the Beep-Mat, with an average width of 5 to 10 metres and lengths of 100 to 200 metres. Article content Structurally, the Rune and La Roche zones appear to be on opposite limbs of a north – to northeast-trending synform. Both zones show moderate to shallow dips that are on average 50° from horizontal. Typically, graphite bands are best exposed along the west margin of the Rune TDEM trend and dip east, whereas graphite bands are found along the east margin of the La Roche TDEM trend and dip west. Article content Drill Program Proposed Article content A total of five primary and four secondary targets at Rune and six primary and four secondary targets at La Roche have been selected for drill testing based on the 2022 airborne geophysical survey and the strong graphite values obtained from the 2023, 2024 and 2025 prospecting and sampling programs. The Company intends to proceed with a 2,500-metre drill program that will test the Priority 1 drill targets at Rune and La Roche. Article content Permitting has been initiated with the expectation that drilling can begin in early November 2025. Article content QAQC and Analytical Procedures Article content All rock sample locations were recorded with Android rugged smart phones running Q-Field data collection software in map datum UTM WGS84 Zone 18N. The Rock samples were photographed and placed in plastic sample bags with sample numbers written on the bags in indelible ink. A plastic, waterproof tag was left at the sample site. The samples were sealed in a rice bag with a zip tie and delivered by Breakaway personnel to Activation Laboratories Ltd. ('Actlabs') in Val d'Or, Quebec. Two certified reference material standards and on blank were included with the 36 samples collected in 2025. In Val d'Or, the samples were crushed to 80% passing 2mm and then riffle split to a 250g sub-sample that was pulverized to 95% passing 105μm (Actlabs Code RX1). The sample pulps were then analyzed for graphitic carbon 'Cg' by mild hydrochloric acid digestion followed by combustion in an infrared induction furnace (Actlabs Code 8Cg). Actlabs is accredited under ISO 9001:2015 registration and is independent of the Company. Article content Qualified Person Article content The technical content presented in this press release was reviewed by Mark Fekete, who acts as an independent consultant to the Company as the 'Qualified Person' as that term is defined under National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
