Farm & Food Care farm guide reaches one million copies Continued from page 12 food and farming practices and this publication does just that" Kelly Daynard manages the project on behalf of Farm & Food Care. She said that she's pleased to see the country's entire food and agricultural community rally behind this initiative. "We've seen everything from farmers who have hand -delivered copies to the waiting room of their doctors' offices and lawyers to dieticians using them in their work to businesses that have ordered thousands of copies for their staff and customers," Daynard said. She added that the examples also include an Ontario Junior Farmer Club that purchased 5,000 copies to hand out at events in its region, Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan that inserted 350,000 copies of the digest version into shopping bags in Co-op grocery stores and the PEI Federation of Agriculture that inserted 20,000 copies in the Charlottetown Guardian. Since the release, copies have also been mailed to politicians across Canada, dietitians, schools, professional home economists, media, grocery store and butcher shop owners and other target audiences. The digest was also inserted in The Globe and Mail in March of 2015 and will be distributed to National Post readers in the spring of 2016, with plans for Council approves Continued from page 1 account for staff time from employees in the Huron County Planning Department, Scott Tousaw, Director of Planning and Development, said that the 500 hours spent on the trail over the last three years has been absorbed by current staff schedules and that the funding could be re -allocated to be used on trail development, as G2G Inc. had requested. If the county were to contribute $70,200, G2G Inc. would then contribute $105,800, while the province rounds out the funding with $175,000. Some councillors were frustrated by the request after being assured the county would not have to contribute funds to the project, while others felt that after all the work that had gone into the project, it would be irresponsible not to provide funding. Warden Paul Gowing said that G2G Inc. was "building an asset" for Huron County and that the county should be seen as a partner in the process. "I'm supportive of this moving ahead," Gowing said. Howick Reeve Art Versteeg, who had said from the beginning that he was supportive of the trail, but not at the cost of contributing taxpayers' dollars, said he was concerned with the request and what it meant for the future of the trail. He said that after the county was assured that G2G Inc. didn't need any county money, they now needed county money. He also said that the county has been assured that trail maintenance will be handled by G2G Inc. by way of stewards and that's another agreement he could see collapsing down the road. While he hated to leave provincial funding money on the table, Versteeg similar insertions in other business leader publications. Farm & Food Care Canada is now working towards distribution of the next million copies.

VanderMolen said, as he has in the past, that the trail addresses a number of issues that the county has made initiatives in recent years, such as active transportation, youth retention and economic development, among others. In addition to the usage and economic spin-off that tourism and trail usage would create, VanderMolen said, local contractors would be used for as much work as possible, resulting in economic benefit for the county as well. Central Huron Deputy -Mayor Dave Jewitt said he was concerned with the timeline of the funding request and that, as a result, council would have to again go against its policies. Because the process was already so far behind, Orchard said, council needed to make a decision at its Jan. 20 meeting, rather than adhering to its established grant policy, which dictates that a report be prepared and that council makes a decision at a meeting subsequent to the meeting at which the request is made. Huron East Mayor Bernie MacLellan said he was supportive of the funding, but that a clause should be written into the motion that states the county will only contribute the $70,200 if the rest of the funding is approved at the provincial level. Orchard agreed and made that amendment. Council approved the motion to provide an additional $34,200 to G2G Inc., in addition to the existing grants of $20,000 and $16,000. The motion will be ratified at council's next meeting, scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 3. HOW MANY CANADIANS HAVE ASTHMA? More than 2.5 million Canadians suffer from asthma.
