What an opportunity! Truro - Friday, Oct. 23 - more than 100 beef producers met "regarding the strategic plan... to have their questions answered and their concerns addressed." What an opportunity wasted. Producers from all over the province were there. Many have never missed a zone, or annual, or special meeting. Others were attending their first Nova Scotia Cattle Producers event. How many will attend another? Why would they? People came to Truro to learn something - to find out about short-term help; to hear about a strategic plan (good, bad, or irrelevant); to discover what others were thinking; to try and understand the current state of the industry; to decide, perhaps, whether to stay in or get out. This meeting was important to many different people in many different ways.
