Biographical history

Established as a body of the government of Canada by Order in Council on July 1, 1867 and it was given statutory basis by Statute 31 Victoria, c. 53, assented on May 22, 1868. The first minister of Agriculture was Jean-Charles Chapais (serving from 1867-07-05 to 1869-11-15), and the first deputy minister was appointed in 1868 (Joseph Charles Taché, serving 1868-05-29 to 1888).

On June 25, 1993, the department was to be restructured and named Agriculture and Agri-Food pending the passage of a Government Organization Act, however Parliament was dissolved before this change could take place. The changes outlined in this act to abolish the office of Minister of Agriculture and establish the office of Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food were enacted by passage of Statute 42-43, Elizabeth II, c. 38 (1994) that was assented to on November 24, 1994 and came into effect on January 12, 1995.
