Pulse Companies List
The Canada Grain Act requires some elevators and grain dealers to have a Canadian Grain Commission (CGC) licence and post security to cover their liabilities-what they owe-to farmers. Grain dealers and operators of primary, terminal and process elevators in western Canada are licensed by the CGC. Seed cleaning plants which do not purchase grain, and feed mills don't have to be licensed.
As of December 1, 2006 the SPG Pulse Companies List will only include companies who are licensed and secured by the CGC (or exempted by regulation), and who are registered to submit check-off to SPG.
The list is compiled based on the CGC's List of Licensees but also includes those who are exempted by regulation due to the nature of their business. It is the responsibility of the producer to ensure the company s/he is dealing with is reliable. For tips on how to do this, check the CGC's website or call them at (800) 853-6705 or (306) 780-5035 in Saskatchewan. Updating Company Information
