This week, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that the government would make a $100 million investment into Merit Functional Foods, which creates ingredients for plant-based foods. The investment will go toward creating jobs at the company’s Winnipeg facility and support Canadian farmers growing crops such as yellow peas—which is the key protein ingredient used in plant-based meat products by brands such as Beyond Meat.

加拿大总理贾斯廷·特鲁多（Justin Trudeau）在本周宣布，加拿大政府将把1亿加元（7400万美元）投资到生产植物性食品原料的Merit Functional Foods（“优良功能性食品”）公司。本次投资目的包括为该公司的温尼伯（Winnipeg）生产设施创造工作岗位，并支持加拿大农民种植黄豌豆等农作物──黄豌豆是一种重要的蛋白质来源，别样肉客（Beyond Meat）等品牌公司正是利用黄豌豆提取的蛋白质（原料）来制造植物肉产品。

“As people around the world start eating more plant-based products, we have an opportunity to bring together Canadian innovation and Canadian crops, and a chance to create good, well-paying jobs,” Trudeau said. “Standing up for hard-working farmers, creating good jobs, setting up Canada for success on the world stage—these are things that our government will always get behind.”

“由于全世界人民开始食用更多的植物性产品，我们有机会将加拿大创新和加拿大农作物结合起来，并且可以增添一些高薪的好工作，”特鲁多说道。“扶持勤劳的农民、创造良好的就业机会、帮助加拿大在世界舞台上取得成功──所有这些事情我们的政府都将一直予以支持。”
