VI PAPER G ve The recent announcement by the Minister of Agriculture, the Honourable Eugene F. Whelan, that the government has approved funds to assist Canfarm, has been welcomed by the President, Peter Hannam. "Mr. Whelan has made it clear in his statement that this will terminate all Federal Government in- volveme[It with Canfarm," said Hannam, "and to us, that is a very positive step." "Our shareholders Faust now make a choice among the options available to us," he added. "Basically, we have three possible ways. we can go and it remains for us to decide which one will give our clients the best service." The three options open t� Canfarm are: 1.

Sell Canfarm to a company which could demonstrate its ability and interest in serving Canadian farmers. A Choice among these options will be made at a shareholders meeting to be called in early January. Mr. Whelan has assured Co-op President, Peter Hannam, that he will do his best to obtain Cabinet approval for any plan that enables Canfarm to carry on. "Although there are still many details to be clarified," Hannam noted, "this will be good news for our farmer clients and 300 agencies. The past few months of uncertainty have been hard on us all and I know that the news that Canfarm will be carrying on will be good news for all these people." "It was unfortunate that these funds could not have been approved earlier so that the confusions and negative publicity during the last few months could have been avoided," said Han- nam. "However, I am pleased that we have been able to demonstrate, during this period, that Canfarm does have a good future and that we have made goad progress. I believe we have been able to dearly show the Minister and others, that the groundwork has been laid for a very active market for Canfarin services. The, fact that our agencies were so forceful in their requests that the service be continued proved that we had made a bit with accountants-" "Our management has already initiated major changes in the structure and staffing of Canfarm since the government announcement. Many of these (flanges could not be made under the agreement we have been working under for the last two years. I ani looking forward to 1981 for renewed growth in Canfarm ser- vices."
