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.
