Bill S-230 — Loi concernant l’élaboration d’une stratégie nationale pour la protection, la conservation et l’amélioration de la santé des sols

This proposed law is about making a national plan for healthy soil. The government would need to come up with a strategy to protect, conserve, and improve soil across Canada. This means figuring out how to keep soil in good condition for growing food and supporting a healthy environment. This proposed law would affect farmers, food producers, and anyone who cares about the environment. Healthy soil is important for growing crops, so farmers would benefit from a national plan that helps them maintain good soil quality. It also affects everyone who eats food, as healthy soil leads to better food production. This matters because healthy soil is essential for food security and a healthy environment. Soil helps clean water, stores carbon, and supports biodiversity. By creating a national plan, Canada could ensure that our soil remains healthy for future generations.
