OFA HOLDS TO ITS
GRENVILLE STANCE
A resolution to overturn the contro-
versial "Grenville resolution" was
soundly defeated at the annual conven-
tion of the Ontario Federation of Agri-
culture held in Toronto recently.
The 1986 resolution, dubbed the
"Grenville" after the county of its origin,
committed the federation to pushing for
a marketing plebiscite among red meat
producers and aroused protest from
some commodity groups.
Lynn Fielder, a delegate from Bruce
County at the 1987 annual, said that the
OFA had "skated for a year on the origi-
nal resolution and it was time to show
everyone that the OFA is not wishy-
washy."
Gordon Hill
When the new resolution was de-
feated, Varna area farmer Gordon Hill, a
former president of the OFA, said that it
is important that farmers work together,
strong and united, because the OFA is
vital to all farmers m Ontario. Roger
George, newly elected first vice-presi-
dent of the OFA, said farmers must be
"concerned with the programs we share,
rather than the products that divide us."
EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS
Doug Garniss of R.R. 4, Wingharn
was elected as an executive director of
the OFA. Garniss, a Morris township
farmer, is immediate past -president of
the Huron County Federation of Agri-
culture and is regional director for
