Roundtable Meeting on Ag Marketing Set

Agriculture Minister Chuck Strahl is scheduled to take part in a roundtable meeting on agricultural marketing.

The meeting is set for July 27th with local Cypress Hills-Grasslands MP David Anderson,
Parliamentary Secretary for the Canadian Wheat Board, hosting.

Andersons says the focus will be on ideas from a variety of western Canadian farmers, stakeholder organizations and others who support the advancement of marketing choice for farmers as a means for creating greater financial returns.

Of course the Conservatives campaigned on the idea that western Canadian grain producers should have a choice whether to market their products through the board.
