Dean Roberts, the board chair for SaskOilseeds, said the group has been calling for the meeting with China since the tariffs were first imposed.
“I’m eager to find a resolution, or hear of a resolution,” he said. “But at this point, I’m just trying to manage my expectations.
“It’s been a long road to get to where we are, and we don’t know what we’re going to get next week.”
Roberts said he’s heard from frustrated farmers since the tariffs were put up.
“This was a federal government trade policy that caught our farms in the crossfire, and we’re paying the price,” he said.
