Farmers across the province - indeed all Ontarians - will, I am sure, share my con- cern that an independent non-political organization such as the OFA is being used by the Minister for his own personal and political purposes.

The Minister does a dipservice to all the fbrmers in this province with his political games, of which this manipulation of the On- tario Federation of Agriculture is a par- ticularly crass example.
