FYI 

Did you know that a 600 lb calf sold in the fall to feedlots in Alberta at $1.30/lb wouldbring approximately $780.00 on average.  If we kept that calf in B.C., finish it, process it and distribute it at wholesale prices to chefs, etc. - it would then bring $2,925.00 into the BC economy and would keep the money here, employing feedlots, abattoirs, truckers and sales people as well as their suppliers.  No wonder Alberta is rubbing its hands in glee every time one of our liners crosses the mountains or the border!!!!  

One way that we  can keep that money here supporting our economy is to work with us and our BC abattoirs  to increase our local markets so you can sell your fed cattle here in BC.  It's your choice to build our local markets and support BC with pride!

You can start by attending our  joint annual meeting and find out what great opportunities we have right here to market your cattle.
