Meet your new Convenor...
Hello, I'm Marion Brown and I" m
privileged to serve as your Agriculture
and Canadian Industries for the next
three years.
My husband, Roy and I, together
with our son Douglas, farm in the Pine
Lake area east of Red Deer. We have
three grown children who, with their
partners, are all engaged in agriculture.
We have eleven precious grandchildren
and are concerned how change will
affect them.
As farmers, we must be in control
and make change work for us. We must
listen and respond to our customers, be
aware of new environmental acts with
guidelines and laws which govern farming
practices, and we must also capitalize
on new technology and expanding
world markets. It's exciting and challenging
but there must be a balance
between personal relationships and
business life. ( See January 1996
Country Guide — Winds of
Change/ Managing our Farm In
Uncertain Times).
I have already been busy on your
behalf with submissions to Agri- Food in
the New Economy Round Table meetings
( to Fedcrated's Convenor, Joyce
Johnson, Manitoba) and Agriculture and
Agri— food Canada's Future Support
for Farm Women ( to Farm Women's
Bureau. Ottawa).
Thanks to all of you who submitted
ideas to me and I will keep you posted
on results.
Another major concern for farmers is
the Alberta Water Act. First reading was
in November, 1995. It will be re- introduced
to the legislature in the Spring
and could be law by June, 1996. If you
are interested in receiving more information
on this, ask for the kil on B i l l 51,
the Water Act through the government
R. I. T. E. number 310— 0000 which is
toll free. D
