The Rural Voice, 1999-01, Page 5Cover
It often seems that if there hasn't been a farm
crisis lately, wait a few minutes. Even given
these realities of the farm economy, the current
situation in pork production is staggering, with
some people
saying it hasn't
been so bad
since the
depression. More
than 1,000
producers and
supporters travell-
ed to Queen's
Park on Decem-
ber 1 to ask for
help. Days later
their plea was
answered.
