National Farmers Union Vice President Walter Miller has asked the Minister of Agriculture and Food, the Honourable William Newman, to disallow the increase in check-off to the Cattlemen's Association. In a letter to the Minister the NFU Vice President pointed out that no plebiscite was ever held in Ontario to authorize the check-off and the monies collected have been used to obstruct the development of stabilization and marketing programs for the industry which we believe the vast majority of farmers support. The NFU letter contends this is taxation without representation and contrary to the principles of democracy. The Union claims the cattlemen's Association represents only a, minority -of producers and have called for a discontinuing of the present check-off.
