V k The Canadian Statesman, P.owmanville, December 11,1985 Section Two Happy First Birthday Farm Leaders Get Vote of Confidence In Annual Election Harry Pelissero, an egg producer from St. Ann's, Ontario, was re-elected president this week of the province's largest farm lobby group - the Ontario Federation of Agriculture. Speaking at the O.F.A.'s 49th annual convention in Toronto, Pelissero called on farmers to resist the growing cynicism resulting from the turmoil and hard times agriculture is experiencing today. Farmers must fight to regain control of the industry, the OFA leader stated. "The challenge is to use events and forces, instead of letting them use us." Addressing comments that global markets and technology will decide the future of agriculture, Pelissero countered "Unlike others who think irreversible outside forces will decide how we live and work in the future. I believe we can - and should - take an agressive role in making sure the future is what we want it to be." Hi! My name is Candice McCrum and I celebrated my birthday on December 10th, 1985.
