We have so much to be proud of in this next generation of farmers, like those young dairy farmers I met today. The new Ag Youth council will give these young leaders a place at the decision-making table. #CAYC #CdnAg

I am re-sharing. This needs to be read and understood - going vegan is not going to save the planet nor improve the global human condition. https://t.co/o3VYMWQ4MC

This year, Christmas dinner will cost you about $65 compared to $8 in 1950. That’s an increase of 810% - sounds like a lot till you consider the ave household income in 1950 was $4,200 compared to $72,000 in 2017, an increase of 1,700% which means your food $ goes twice as far!

An insightful article from concerned doctors who have done a lot of research into this! Dairy and Meat are part of a healthy diet. I would love to see a new Canada Food Guide that uses scientific evidence to provide dietary guidelines for multiple types of diets. #canadafoodguide

Here is an op-ed from today's Calgary Herald which I was involved in helping to write. I will attach the original op-ed to which ours is a response as a thread to this tweet https://t.co/OMtRuV2gtL

And what did Canada get in return for offering up huge concessions impacting our dairy industry? #usmca

Tweet 9 of 9: Canadians demand choice in our new Food Guide. Meat, eggs, and dairy (including full fat dairy) can be part of a very healthy evidence-based dietary option. Our Food Guide should not be hijacked as a vehicle to forward one of several equal evidence-based options.

@DartnellJeff We don't plan to hold our Dec 15 baby back, but I think it depends on the child.
