Cell (204) 851-1298
My wife Myrna and I, and our 2 sons operate a grain, oilseed and livestock farm near Elkhorn.
I served on the District Board of KAP, and as delegate for Manitoba Pool Elevators. I was elected director for MPE in 1993 and continued as director for Agricore and Agricore United until 2007. I served on the Human Resources, Risk Review, and Agriculture Policy Committee at Agricore United. I received the Institute of Corporate Director Designation from the Haskayne School of Business at the University of Calgary in 2005. I am currently treasurer for MCGA.
It is important that MCGA encourage the research and development of disease resistant varieties, as well as continuing to promote the health benefits of canola oil and the advantages of canola meal in livestock rations.
I ask for your support to promote this very important industry for the benefit of all canola producers.
