      Historique

      The Strategic Policy Branch began as the Strategic Policy Coordination Unit within the Policy and Programs Branch of the Policy and Farm Finance Division. By 2002, it was a fully formed branch: the Strategic Policy Branch.

      In 2017 or 2018, the Policy Coordination and Cabinet Liaison Unit was transferred to the Rural Policy Branch, leaving only the Socio-economic Analysis Unit and the Strategy, Intergovernmental Relations and Trade Unit to constitute the Strategic Policy Branch.

      During the 2018-2019 fiscal year, a change of government resulted in some minor restructuring and re-naming within the Policy Division, including some changes to the units of the Strategic Policy Branch. The Policy Coordination Unit was placed under the Rural and Agri-Food Corporate Policy Branch, while the Intergovernmental Relations Unit and Trade Policy and Market Access Units formed part of the Intergovernmental and Trade Policy Branch.

      By 2020, however, the three units appear to have been re-united under a restored Strategic Policy Branch. When the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs was divided into two ministries in 2024, the branch continued under the Policy Division of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Agribusiness.
