FARM NEWS
Panel discusses free trade
Free Trade. Canadian farmers aren't able to maintain the status quo of
trade with the United States because of growing protectionism in that coun-
try. Even though some members of the agriculture industry fear free trade,
Canada will suffer more if they ignore the new American trade attitude,
farmers are told. Give and take negotiations are the best option Canadian
farmers have right now, farmers were told during a panel discussion at
Grey -Bruce Farmers' Week. Several commodities were represented on the
fair trade panel including from left: Ron Oswald, Canadian Cattlemen's
Association president; Dr. E.L. Menzie, Director, School of Agricultural
Economics, University of Guelph; Tom Smith, Ontario Pork Producers'
Marketing Board president; Colin Reesor, OMAF, representing grain and
oil seed producers; and Jack Westlake, OMAF, representing dairy pro-
ducers. (Photo by Phyllis Coulter.)
