Hey there, time traveller!

As citizens of this country, we need to decide what kind of a country we want to live in. A healthy, vibrant, rural economy with small family farms and small, local abattoirs, which is good for urban Canada as well.

We need to restore public confidence in the food system (currently very low). We need to develop a food supply system that does not destroy community, here in Manitoba, Canada or in other countries. Farmers must be valued for the contribution they make to our society.

Sadly, this is not taking place in Manitoba. The public good, our concerns for health, the environment and protection to our water sources has fallen through the widening cracks initiated by our government(s).
