More than 240 wakers came out with their walking shoes on Jan. 26, 2013 in steps to end Alzheimer’s disease. It was wonderful to see so many people out to support this important cause. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and walkers we have raised over $55,000. We are grateful for all the support to achieve our goal. We’re accepting online donations until Feb. 28 at www.walkformemories.ca – walker name Alzheimer Society Huron County. If you have friends, family or colleagues who missed the deadline for donating to the walk, please let them know there’s still time. Without the loyal support of our committed volunteers, our valued sponsors, exceptional efforts of each and every walker and the generosity of Huron County this success would not be possible. Thank you. Sincerely, Brittany Williams, Acting Events Co-ordinator Alzheimer Society of Huron County. Thompson pleased with turnout Continued from page 15 Conservative party launched two white papers, Paths to Prosperity—A Fresh Start for Children and Youth and Paths to Prosperity—From Welfare to Work, aimed as a platform for discussion on the direction of social services delivery in Ontario. Thompson and Pettapiece invited McKenna and Barrett, and individuals from the across the health care sector to come together for a frank discussion about how government can better deliver social service programs. “I am pleased with the number of people who wanted to come out and have their voices heard on social service delivery in our community.” said Thompson. “There were many common themes come out of the evening, including the need for flexibility for programs to be delivered differently in rural areas than in urban and the need to be sensitive to transportation barriers. It was also a great networking opportunity for everyone who attended." Since being elected in 2011, Thompson has been meeting with social service providers from across Huron-Bruce, but used the meeting as an opportunity to bring different parts of the sector together to discuss improvements that can be made with social services delivery. “I think it is really important for everyone to be in a room together and have an open forum to discuss what is most important, and how they can play a role,” said Thompson. “I was especially pleased to partner with Randy to host Jane and Toby here in Wingham. The critics provided us with the background and framework for a progressive path forward. They were quite impressed with the quality of open and frank dialogue.” Huron County ousts Perth as top pork producerHuron County nipped PerthCounty as the top producer of pork in Ontario in 2012, Teresa Van Raay, Zone 1 director for Ontario Pork reported to Huron County Pork producers at their Jan. 30 annual meeting. Huron’s 257 pork producers shipped 920,000 hogs last year, about 20 per cent of all hogs marketed in Ontario, Van Raay told 70 producers and industry representatives at the meeting in Seaforth where she and Amy Cronin, fellow zone director andchair of Ontario Pork, gave theirboard report.Province-wide the number ofproducers continues to decline. Currently there are 1,644 producers in Ontario. There were 20,160 in 1980. Still, the number of pigs being marketed remains about the same at 4.9 million. The flow of pigs being exported out of Ontario has been redirected from the U.S. to Quebec, she said. Cronin said shipments to the U.S. will hopefully increase as the U.S. responds to a ruling from the World Trade Organization that its compulsory Country of OriginLabeling (COOL) legislation haddiscriminated against Canadian andMexican producers. The U.S. hasuntil May 23 to respond. “We want them to change the legislation and be able to access the market [the way we could before COOL],” Cronin said. On the government relations front, Cronin said she was disappointed when she heard that the Ontario government was going to cap the payout of the Risk Management Program, an assistance plan Ontario Pork had worked hard on along with the grains and oil seeds producers, sheep and veal producers. With thechange, it isn’t the same program asin 2012, she said, but she felt it wasstill a good program.Meanwhile on the federal level, there have been significant changes in support programs that will not be good for pork producers. The Agri- Recovery portion of the federal program doesn’t seem to work for pork producers, she said. Meanwhile there are reduced limits in how much producers can put into the AgriInvest program. Van Raay explained that OntarioPork is starting a new fee which willcharge 20 cents for each grower pigbeing exported from Ontario. Theidea has always been that if there was a charge for small pigs, then the $1 per pig charge for market hogs should be reduced, she said. However Ontario Pork has decided to wait for three months after the inauguration of the program to assess the costs of collecting the fee, before deciding how much to reduce the current levy.
